RouterStats History
===================

5.6c  25 August 2009    ST585 Bug Fixes and additions:

			 Fixed problem with repeated telnet login with the ST585.

			 Fixed problem with downstream sync graph showing zero (ST585).

			 Added bitswap graphs (histograms).

			 StatusBar now shows WAN IP address.

			 Worked round bug in router so "Router Stats Page" now shows WAN Data Transferred and improved
			   appearance of Stats Page.



5.6b  19 August 2009	"Router Stats Page" can be saved as an image.

			ADSL2+ Uptime calculation improved for greater accuracy (Now adjusts automatically for variations
			  in the length of a superframe (msec)).

			Telnet graphs' current max and min values are saved when RouterStats closes.

			Fixed bug causing Rx Noise Margin graph to adopt sync speed scale when "overlay sync speed" was checked.

			  Related issue: Fixed bug when, after clicking on right-hand scale in order to align horizontal grid-
			  lines with right axis, closing right axis (No sync speed overlay) would leave graph without any
			  horizontal grid lines. Now, they automatically re-align with left axis.
			



5.6a 15 August 2009	I've tried to improved accuracy of Telnet Uptimes for ADSL2+.  G.DMT is already accurate.

			Fixed problem with graphs not resizing during capture.

			Improved telnet code for the DG834(G) hopefully to reduce 'glitches' in telnet graphs.


5.6 05 August 2009	Added option to trigger Alarm if Ping returns 100% packet loss a configurable number of times.

			Added adjustable delay (1 sec to 300 secs) before executing telnet script after an alarm event.
			  (Could be used to reset target snr after a reboot, for example).

			Bits/Tone graph now works with 585 v6.

			Added a Telnet Summary page for the 585.

			Minor cosmetic changes to Telnet Summary page (improved formatting on >10,000 kbps Rates).



5.5 30 July 2009        Added Bits/tone graph for Thomson 585 v6 and v7.
                  
                        Minor cosmetic changes to Rx MByes and Tx MBytes Tabs. (Title changes for ppp0 and nas0).

			Removed redundant 'missing username or password' warning.


5.4e 21 July 2009	Fixed bug causing Logout URL to be not remembered.


5.4d 12 July 2009	Fixed bug preventing 'Ping' from working.
			Added additional preset Telnet commands and two user-defined in Terminal window.


5.4c 10 July 2009       Fixed bug affecting vertical scrolling of Bits/Tone graph.

			Added specific http support for Thomson 585v7 (not telnet).  Should now plot Up and Down Noise Margins and
                          Connection Rates more reliably. (See also http://vwlowen.co.uk/internet/bitloading.htm )
			'View Router Log' now works with the DG834(G) v5.
			Sync Speed overlay on Downstream Noise Margin graph now begins with same Max and Min as main
                          Sync Speed graph (although it may auto-adjust when required).
			When Sync Speed is overlayed on Noise Margin graph, the graph's horizontal grid lines can be aligned
                         with either the left-hand or right-hand scale by clicking on the appropriate scale.
			Added System option to reduce RouterStats priority to "Below Normal".
			Added "Reset Stats" to telnet Summary page to reset the *router's*  ADSL stats.


5.4b 25 June 2009	Tried to work around bug in how the Broadcom chipset reports interleaving with ADSL2+  (Mode always
                         seems to be 'Fast').
			Added "ADSL2+" button to allow Bits/Tone graph to plot tones 0-255, 256-512 or 0-512.  Easier to land
                          the mouse on individual tones without having to use the "Widescreen" checkbox.
			Fixed bug preventing G.DMT and ADSL2+ radio buttons from overriding Auto setting for bits/tone graph.
			If HTTP upstream Noise and Sync graphs are dragged vertically with the Mouse (plus the Shift or Alt Key),
                          the new scale Max and Min values will be saved when RouterStats is closed.
			  (Reminder: Shift Key = whole scale scrolls. Alt Key = Minimum value is fixed).
			Telnet Summary Page should now detect WAN IP address with ADSL2+.
			Fixed bug causing "Access violation error" when using the daily schedule timer to reset "rx and tx 
                         bytes transferred totals" graphs.


5.4a 11 June 2009	Fixed bug causing User-def 2 log entry label to be the same as User-def 1 (actual value was ok)
 
5.4  07 June 2009       Added option to change SMTP email port number.
                        Graphs can now be captured in JPG, PNG, GIF or BMP format.
			Graph Viewer - added splitter bar between file list and image window to allow resizing.
			Graph Viewer now shows filename extension.


5.3  01 June 2009       Horizontal grid lines on Bits/Tone graph can be aligned with the left or right axis numbers (by clicking on
                          the axis).
                        A new Tab has been added with a 'Ping Plotter'. (Accessed from Configuration -> System).

5.2e 27 May 2009        SNR/Tone right axis title did not correspond with "Show bitswap totals..." checkbox.
			Added facility to stretch Bits/Tone graph (widescreen) to make it easier to land the mouse on
                          individual tones. Most beneficial with ADSL2+.


5.2d 23 May 2009	Fixed bug causing RouterStats to forget ADSL2+ setting (when 'discovered' through Mode: Auto)
                          for Bits/Tone graph.

5.2c 21 May 2009        Added 'View Source' to "Router Stats Page" popup menu.
			Added 'adslctl info --stats' to Telnet command options.
			Added WAN "Rx Bytes Transferred" and "Tx Bytes Transferred" graphs to their respective Tabs (telnet).

5.2b 11 May 2009	Fixed bug affecting Telnet Prompt symbol for the D-Link 2640B ('>' not being remembered).
		    *** Users of Non-Netgear routers will need to check and reset the Telnet Prompt on the Experimental Tab
                        if they're using the telnet features of RouterStats. ***
			Fixed bug affecting AR7 chipset not being remembered (Experimental tab).
			Added code to SNR/Tone button on the Terminal window for the DG834(G) v1, 2 and 3 (AR7 chipset).


5.2a 10 May 2009	Telnet error graphs for the DG834(G) v5 can now monitor 15-minute, 24-hour totals or since reboot.
			Tidied up how the graphs scroll vertically and added a facility to 'pin' the vertical axis minimum
                          value while scrolling allowing the vertical scale to be temporarily expanded or compressed.
			Added option to generate web images without running webserver - for people who run their own server.


5.2  08 May 2009	Added Telnet support for the DG834(G) version 5 (Conexant chipset).


5.1e 06 May 2009	Fixed bug preventing DG834G V5 from working.

5.1d 04 May 2009	Added option to attach router's log to scheduled email. Added a "Send Email" button to the
                          router's log window.  The button can send the log as the email message body or as an attachment.
			Fixed bug preventing the RouterStatstats log from being attached to emails.
			Added facility to have Bitswaps/Time graph's timeline to be the same time as other graphs even when
                          the graph's refresh rate is different.
			Some cosmetic changes to Bitswaps/Time plots.
			Added Expand/Restore Timeline to Bitswaps/Time graph popup menu.


5.1c 01 May 2009	Added HTTP support for the DG834(G) version 5  (No telnet).


5.1b 30 April 2009	Removed facility to selelct DG834v5 from configuration section as it was preventing the use
                         of a non-standard IP address.

5.1a 29 April 2009	Fixed bugs in Bitswap/Time Capture and in YAxis Auto Adjust.
 
5.1  28 April 2009      Consolidated bug fixes and additions from version 5.0c through to 5.0f1.
			Bits loading graphs now have a separate sample timer to allow their interval to be set longer
                         than the other graphs. This should conserve a large amount of memory.
			Bitloading graph is now more robust at ignoring "bad" values from router.
			Added checkbox on Graphs Configuration page to make vertical scrolling optional. Any graph
                         can also be scrolled vertically by holding down the Shift Key while dragging.  Added some new
                         cursors to indicate which way graphs can be dragged.

			Made the overlays consistent in the various graph capture and save options. All methods of
                         capturing a graph now use the overlay checkboxes on the Configuration page.

			Rounded Rx-Noise figure on graph capture overlays to work better with the 'GT.

			Changed relative "layers" of SNR and Bits plots on the bitloading graph - the first vertical
			 rise in the red SNR plot was obscuring the first blue downstream bit plot.

			Added support for routers which don't require a Username to Log in.


5.0f  24 April 2009	Fixed bug affecting View Router Log when used with a new configuration file.

5.0e  24 April 2009	Fixed bug preventing graphs scrolling left under some circumstances.
                        Added code to try to prevent mouse wheel scrolling graphs due to operating system bug.
                        Fixed rounding error with Rx-Noise on Toolbar with non-Netgear routers using "Disable HTTP"
			Changed some default INI file settings.
			Fixed bug in calculation for Telnet Noise and Telnet Sync Averages graphs.

5.0d  21 April 2009     Added option to NOT scale bitswap totals on graph. Points can go off the top of the graph which can
                          be scrolled vertically to view them. (Frequently, only one tone has an excessive number of 
                          bitswaps).
                        Bitswap points no longer leave a "trail" - points off the top will leave a green triangle/arrow.
                        Modified DGTeam login code to try to catch 'Connection Closed Gracefully' error message.
                        Some cosmetic changes and a bug fix (List index out of bounds error) to Bits/Tone graph.
                        Suppressed "Get IP address" error message (not necessary). 
                        Added menu item to router-log window to specifically select DG834N to clean up displayed text.
			Fixed bug causing some graph plots to be visible below bottom axis.
			Added facility to drag some graphs vertically (as well as horizontally where required).
			Added option to sample Bits/Tone and Bitswaps/Time graphs less frequently than the other graphs.
                          This should help to reduce memory usage.
			Truncated Rx-Noise figure on Toolbar to 2 characters for non-Netgear routers.
			Removed erroneous 'PPPoA' legend on StatusBar with non-Netgear routers.


5.0c  12 April 2009     Added Line Attenuation curve to the Bits/Tone graph. (v4 and GT only).
                        Improved bitswap code to reduce invalid data being plotted.
     			Modified the telnet Log code to eliminate the zero glitches (as per 5.0b for the graphs). 
                        Rx & Tx Noise values (http & Telnet) are formatted better for the log entries.
                        Fixed bug preventing Rx Sync appearing on Toolbar when "Disable HTTP" is checked.                      
			Fixed problem with graphs not plotting during Alarm wait period.
                        Hopefully fixed bug causing alarm to trigger in error when first hitting the Run button.


5.0b  5 April 2009      Reworked telnet graphing code for Noise and Sync to try to eliminate the zero glitches.
                        Fixed bug preventing Telnet IP address from changing from default.
                        Connect button on Terminal window does not now initiate an auto-refresh. The window now
                         correctly sits at the BusyBox prompt (bug introduced in earlier version).


5.0a  1 April 2009      Option to add the Bits/Tone graph to the normal page-capture schedule.
                        Option to capture the Bits/Tone graph immediately before and after a "Bitswap event".
                        Option to graph a "histogram" of bitswap totals for each tone.
			Tones that have bitswapped from previous plot are plotted in fuchsia.
			Added Bitswaps/Time graph to plot when bitswaps occur.
                        When using telnet with non-Netgear routers, the Total Uptime (as derived from telnet) will
                          be displayed on the Statusbar. The format will always be 'days, hr:min:sec'

         		Added "Save As..." to System Messages window.
			Added additional error tracing code and added checkbox to suppress System Error Messages if desired.
                        Fixed bug preventing Uptime in 'days, hr:min:sec' format going above 12 days.
                        Fixed bug preventing Bits/Tone graph from being refreshed under some circumstances.
                        Fixed bug causing Socket Error when "Router ppp session has disconnected" checkbox was checked.

5.0   Not Released.
 

4.9c  20 Mar 2009	Added option to show Statusbar WAN uptime as days, hr:min:sec  (via System Configuration
                          checkbox). 


4.9b  20 Mar 2009	DG834(G) V4 and GT now calculate Total Up Time (Telnet)  from the superframes count (SF * 17
                         Not sure if this applies to ADSL2+ ).

                        Added some debug messages to the main System Message window to try to catch why the router
                          sometimes returns a 0 Noise and Sync value.                



4.9a  26 Feb 2009       Added SNR/Tone graph for the DG834(G) v1, 2 and 3.
                         I'm not too sure how the SNR/Tone values are derived from the figures presented by the router.
                         Although I think the values plotted on the graph are correct, I cannot guarantee them.
                         I would welcome any feedback on this.

                        Added option for SNR/Tone graph to use its own scale.



4.9   23 Feb 2009	Added Bits/Tone graph for DGTeam firmware - ****NOTE****  MUST use DGTeam f/w version 0849 or later.

                        Added Bits/Tone  for DG834(G) v1, v2 and v3.  (Thanks to WWWombat for finding the                                                                  telnet commands).


4.8   12 Feb 2009       Hopefully fixed bug preventing Sync alarms working.


4.7h  17 Jan 2009       Added optional enable-telnet command which may work with other routers such as the DG632.


4.7g  11 Jan 2009       Changed date/time format for scheduled email. (Invalid date/time error).
                        Changed date/time format for log maintenance schedule. (Invalid date/time error).

                        Added drop-down list of computer IP addresses for web server.


4.7f 23 Nov 2008        Changed DGTeam default username to 'admin' (in line with DGTEam firmware 0841 change).

                        Added command-line feature to override "Start Automatically" and "Start Minimized" checkboxes to allow
                          RouterStats to open in "Safe Mode" (See help file).

                        Fixed bug causing Floating Point Error when Telnet was enabled but no graphs were selected for plotting.


4.7e 16 Nov 2008        Added facility to set the size of the Captured images as a percentage of the screen graph size or as width
                          & height in pixels.  

                        Added printer support.

                        Some cosmetic changes to the popup menus.

                        Added more code to 'timeout and retry feature'.


4.7d 13 Nov 2008        Added telnet valid-data 'timeout and retry feature'.  Sometimes, if the router or the LAN is busy, telnet
                         requests are ignored by the router (or only partial data is retrieved). This feature may alleviate the
                         effects of this and reduce the number of spurious  zero "spikes" on the telnet graphs.  Default is for
                         this feature to be enabled. (The HTTP protocol is inherently protected from this to a larger extent).



4.7c  11 Nov 2008        Added command line switch ( -safe) to allow RouterStats to open in "Safe Mode".  This will ignore 
                           'Start Automatically' and 'Start Minimized' checkboxes and will not start the web server or attempt
                           to access the network.

                         Fixed bug when dragging locked-together graphs.


4.7b  08 Nov 2008        Downstream Sync Speed overlay has created a bug when calculating averages. Hopefully fixed.

                         Added overlay to telnet Rx Noise graph.

                         Added "Capture ALL marked graphs now"  button to Toolbar.


4.7a  05 Nov 2008        Added option to overlay downstream sync speed on downstream noise margin graph.  This allows the two
                           most important values to be seen at a glance and captured on a single graph.


4.7   02 Nov 2008        Moved experimental telnet to its own Telnet Tab:  (Tested extensively with D-Link DSL-2640b and 2740b).

                           Added options to change telnet port, telnet prompt, chipset and command-set. 

                           Added option to disable HTTP access entirely and use an independent telnet IP address.
                             Rx Noise on Icon,  Rx Noise & Rx Sync on Toolbar and WAN IP address obtained from telnet in this case.

                           Added option to force RouterStats to display 255 or 510 tones (ADSL or ADSL2+) on bits/tone graph.

                         Added optional marker points to telnet SNR graph (Easier to click on for Tone details panel).

                         Regional decimal separator now detected automatically (with option to override).

                         User-defined graphs now handle comma decimal separator better.

                         Modified Logging code so that log entry format is consistent across http and telnet.

                         Fixed bug in Bits/Tone graph causing details panel to show one tone out.

                         Fixed bug causing "Capture Now" to reset the scheduled capture page counter.



4.6e   26 oct 2008       Mainly cosmetic: Improved the Scheduled Capture configuration by eliminating the 'Never' radio button.

4.6d   26 Oct 2008       Added Downstream and Upstream Max Rate figures to Telnet Summary Page (DG834(G) v4  and DG834GT).
                         Added Font selection for Telnet Summary page and terminal window.
                         Changed code for telnet summary page and terminal windows. Now only display scrollbars if required.
                         Added option to capture a daily one-off single page of the selected graphs at a specified time.
                         Camera Icons for scheduled and one-off times added to telnet graphs.
                         Fixed "floating"  Extended Stats checkbox when RouterStats was resized.


4.6c   24 Oct 2008       Added option to set the font size for the Noise Margin value on the SysTray Icon.

                         Changed code around telnet graphs' vertical axes to allow zero to be more clearly visible above the bottom
                          baseline.

                         Fixed bug causing 'invalid floating point operation' when a time value was chosen as marked text.


4.6b   09 Oct 2008       Fixed bug causing an 'invalid floating point operation' error in some circumstances.
                         
                         Fixed bug preventing graphs being plotted when router doesn't respond (regardless of checkbox setting).

                         Fixed bug in 'Expected profile' when Connection Speed was at band edges.

                         Delayed Telnet plotting by one sample. This "spreads the cpu load" and prevents a zero value being plotted
                           as the first point (which was upsetting the average value on the telnet popup menu).

                         Telnet Connect/Disconnect works with better co-ordination between main Start/Stop buttons  and 'manual' telnet
                           connect/disconnect buttons.

                         Default experimental telnet username ('root') can now be changed via an input box instead of
                           editing the INI file.
    


4.6a   06 Oct 2008       (Withdrawn - buggy) 

4.6    06 Oct 2008       Added the option to plot average values for Rx Noise, Rx Sync and the two user-defined graphs. The averages
                           are "rolling averages" over an adjustable number of samples.  

                         The rolling average value on the popup menu is now based on the number of samples configured here.
                           (Config-> Graphs -> Extras)

                         Added option to automatically adjust the vertical axes of the Rx Noise and Rx Sync Speed graphs in addition
                           to the two User-defined graphs.

                         Cosmetic changes: Graphs' popup menu shows 'dB' or 'Kbps' where appropriate.
                                           Added 'Configure Graphs' to popup menu. Duplicates 'Configure' button but always opens
                                            configuration on the graphs configuration page.


4.5c   02 Oct  2008      Fixed bug introduced in v 4.5 which prevented the HTML "Get Page" display from accepting valid marked text.

4.5b   02 Oct  2008      Changing the configuration IP address of any one of: Login URL, LogOut URL or ReBoot URL, automatically
                          changes the other two.

4.5a   29 Sept 2008      Added "Expected IP profile" to Downstream Connection Speed popup menu.



4.5    21 Sept 2008      Added a second "Use source" checkbox which retrieves the stats page source code differently. May
                         be useful as an alternative "Mark Text" page and enables RouterStats to work with additional routers.


4.4    20 Sep 2008       Added checkbox to allow router to login to telnet, bypassing the Netgear "debug" method. 
                         Allows telnet to work with some other routers.

                         Added code to help problem with RouterStats appearing "off screen" when switching computer from dual
                         to single monitor. RouterStats now always opens on Primary monitor.

                         Fixed bug preventing "manual" User-defined graphs maximum going beyond 100.



4.3    26 Aug 2008       The two User-defined graphs can either plot the "raw" data extracted from the router or plot the 
                         difference between successive sample values. This will allow  "value per sample" to be plotted
                         instead of simply a cumulative total. Option settable via Radio Buttons when initially "Marking"
                         
                         Added support for DGTeam firmware (tested with the GT) which requires a separate telnet login. Currently,
                         the bits/tone graph is not plotted and the "Adjust Target SNR" feature seems none too accurate.

                         Added simple maintenance for logfile:  Trim to a specified number of lines, daily at a specified time.


4.2    14 Aug 2008       Added optional Max and Min settings for the y-axes of the two User-defined graphs with checkboxes
                         to select "Auto".

4.1    20 Jul 2008       Added new alarm triggers:  Noise Margin has dropped below an adjustable average of the last xx samples.
                                                 Noise Marging has risen above an adjustable average of the last xx samples.
                                                 'xx' is configurable from 10 to 1000 samples.
                                                 (These alarms should ignore gradual expected changes in SNR such as at night
                                                   and in the morning but will trigger on sudden unexpected changes)
                                                 
                                                 For Netgear DG834 series:  Alarm when PPP session has dropped.

                         Added new alarm action:    Write to Log.  As every sample is no longer (necessarily) written to the
                                                 log (see below), this facility has been added to log data when an alarm occurs.

                         Added new log functions:   Data can be logged at intervals other than at the default setting of every sample.
                                                  (Adjustable between 1 and 120 minutes).

                                                 Log Noise Margin changes +/- a percentage of the average value of xx samples.

                                                 For Netgear DG834 series:  Log dropped PPP sessions.

                         Added a "Splash Screen" as RouterStats now has a lot of configuration data to load from the INI file before
                         it appears on the monitor screen.
  
                         Trapped errors if logfile folder doesn't exist.


4.0c    01 Jul 2008   Fixed bug preventing emailed daily log from updating to current day.

4.0b    24 Jun 2008   Fixed issue with "Extended Stats" when no 'ppp0' port exists.

4.0a    23 Jun 2008   Fixed anomaly in how Telnet reports "Trellis" status with ADSL2+

4.0     23 Jun 2008   The Netgear DG834 series of routers can use a new precise search function built into RouterStats to
                      retrieve the Downstream and Upstream Noise Margins and Connection Speeds.

                         The DG834 should be detected automatically but a new checkbox on the System configuration Tab
                         allows the DG834 to be selected manually.

                         This new function will eliminate the issue with the the DG834 where RouterStats loses track
                         of the marked text as numerical values increase in "length".  (FAQ Q1)
                                   

                      Fixed bug preventing Telnet Rx Sync graph from plotting above 10,000 in some circumstances.
                      Fixed bug where SNR per Tone wasn't always plotted correctly (DG834 v4).
                      Fixed code where colour-change indicates Tx/Rx boundary in Bits per Tone graph with ADSL2+ (DG834 v4).


3.1g    (Beta)        Some computers don't dispaly the Telnet stats very well. This version uses slightly different Telnet
                      code. I don't get the problem so it's difficult to fix!

                      Added 'Select All' and 'Copy' to Search Text source code window.

3.1f    14 Jun 2008   Fixed bug preventing negative SNR values being plotted.
                      Fixed bug causing graph axis error.
                      Added FAQ to helpfile.

3.1e    13 Jun 2008   Added Log to webserver and ability to create a basic blocked list for unwanted IP addresses.

                      Added checkbox to System Configuration for when the router uses the period (.) as the decimal
                       separator but the Windows regional setting uses a comma.

3.1d    02 Jun 2008   Fixed bug causing FAST mode to be not detected in DG834GT.

3.1c    02 Jun 2008   Reworked code around snr/tones graph - now updates automatically with main sample timer.


3.1b    28 May 2008   Added code for ADSL2+ to bits/tone graph parsing.
                   

3.1     19 May  2008  Telnet - Netgear V4:  Added Interleave Depth to Summary Page.
                                            Added facility to set Target SNR. (was in later 3.0 Betas)
                                            Added new Tab to graph Bits/Tone and SNR/Tone.
                                            

3.0 (Beta)  12 May    Increased maximum Sync Speed to 50,000.

                      Telnet: Netgear v4: Can now read and plot error totals at intervals of 15 mins, 24 hours or
                              since reboot.
                      Telnet: Netgear v1,2 & 3: I've tried to add a similar facility as in the v4.


2.9b    29 Apr 2008   Fixed "Access Violation" bug on Telnet summary page popup menus.
                      Added Down Arrow option to Run button to provide two types of delayed start.

2.9a    25 Apr 2008   Added additional option to "Capture graphs when RouterStats Closes" checkbox to only capture
                        if more than a configurable number of points have been plotted.

2.9     25 Apr 2008   Added Telnet support for DG834(G) version 4  and DG834GT series routers. (includes ability to
                         set target SNR (v4 and GT only))

                      Fixed bug causing telnet Rx Noise graph to pop up the wrong menu.

                      Added checkbox on System Tab to always use UTC/GMT. ('UTC' appears on captured graphs).
                      Added 'Copy To Clipboard' to graphs' pop-up menu.
                      Added 'Select All' to Image Viewer popup menu.

		Reduced chances of errors caused by webserver and sample timer accessing images at the same time.

2.8	6 Nov   Added facility to only trigger alarm once during a prolonged alarm condition.
		Hopefully fixed bug causing an alarm to be triggered when the alarm condition was
		   shorter than its delay timer.

		Added new WebServer facility to allow graphs to be viewed remotely on the internet.


        March - October: Moving House!
                       I've moved to a house with a bad and very viariable Downstream SNR so I may, finally, be
                       able to spend some more time on the alarm facilities in RouterStats and debug other issues
                       which may become apparent when the router disconnects umpteen times within 20 minutes.


2.7h/i	11 Jan 2007    Prevented illegal characters (as filenames) being used in User-defined labels.


2.7g	09 Dec	The Help file is no longer deleted when RouterStats closes.

2.7c	14 Nov	Changed the way window size and position is saved when RouterStats closes.

2.7b	12 Nov	Improved router reboot routine.

2.7a	08 Nov	Added "Transparency" (Alpha-Blend) option.

2.7	03 Nov  Fixed bug causing "Send Now" (e-mail) not to work.
		Fixed bug causing Alarms to require Telnet to be checked for them to work.
		"Reboot Router" checkbox now remembered when RouterStats closes.
		More robust checking when sending e-mail before rebooting router. (Sending was sometimes
		  getting cut short when remote server was slow.
		Added "per day" radio button to max reboots counter.
		Added .cmd to permissible file extensions for script execution. Added Test button.
		Added a "System messages" Tab (with option to hide it). This Tab provides a log showing
		  RouterStats' internal "conversations" with itself. May assist future debugging.
		
		Included a new folder in the zip distribution. Currently contains a 'ready-to-run' .INI file
		  for the Draytek 2600 (Thanks to Mike for that one).



2.6d	02 Nov  Changed code to prevent invalid filename characters being entered when Date/Time formatting
		  is used as part of filename. (log and Capture).

2.6b	29 Oct  Modified x1000 scaling so only Rx Sync is scaled. (Tx Sync graph auto-adjusts the vertical axis)
		Fixed problem with Draytek routers using a blank password.

2.6a	25 Oct  Added Total Bytes Transferred to Telnet summary page.

2.6	19 Oct  Fixed bug causing telnet summary page and graphs to return incorrect values.
		
		Added "Netgear Search Text" Restore Defaults button.
		The System & Log tab was getting a bit crowded so I've given them a tab each.
		Marked text can be Time values - they won't be plotted on the graphs but will
                  appear on ther Toolbar.


2.5g	12 Oct	Added facility to use stats page souce code instead of HTML dispaly in order to 'mark'
		  search text values. Primarily, this is for use with routers which use JavaScript to display
		  their stats page.

2.5f	06 Oct	Added "Send Now" button to test e-mail facility.
		Updated Help file.

2.5e	05 Oct  Fixed bug preventing Rx sync graph plotting above 10,000

2.5d	04 Oct	Increased Rx-Sync maximum to 20,000.

2.5c	25 Sep  Added facility to show Login password in plain text to assist when having Login problems.
		Added facility to e-mail IP address if it changes (Netgear DG834(G) only).
		Optional "Mail" icon to notify when an e-mail has been sent.
		Option to open e-mail clent.

2.5b	24 Sep  Added facility to change graph drawing colour when the router doesn't respond. This will
		 allow "genuine" zero values to be distinguished from the router not responding.

2.5a	21 Sep  Fixed bug causing main window to grab focus and move in front of the configuration window.
		Fixed bug causing RouterStats to grab focus from other applications when "closed-to-systray".

		More work to the Login routines - added more error messages to assist finding login failures. 

2.5	19 Sep  Added checkboxes to overlay current Rx-Sync and Rx-Noise values to captured graphs (in addition 
                  to IP address).

		Added prompt for y-axis labels when marking user-defined graphs for "training".

		Moved telnet terminal window onto its own Telnet Tab.

		Removed default login password as this was causing confusion to first-time users.

		A few people seem to have a problem initially getting RouterStats to connect with the router so
		  I've spent some time trying to improve the login routines.

		The success of Telnet seems very variable and seems to depend on factors such as the speed of the
		computer and the ethernet hardware. There's no "handshaking" as such with Telnet so it can be difficult
		to know how the system is performing. I've taken the opportunity to try a few new techniques which
		might improve reliability.

		This is the first version which has had some limited testing with Windows Vista RC1 which seems to place
		higher demands on system hardware. I've included a few notes on using RouterStats with Vista in the
		helpfile.

2.4	10 Sep	Fixed bug causing 'Get Page' button to retrieve the wrong page!

2.3b	04 Sep	Added Telnet facility (Netgear DG834(G) only) to determine if ADSL MAX has Interleaving
		  'On' or 'Off'.

2.3a	03 Sep  Ongoing bug fix with negative Telnet Rx figure. (One occasion when a bad BT line would be
                  useful!)
		Router's Log now automatically scrolls to most recent entry.

2.3	02 Sep	Added Toolbar button to display the router's internal log. NETGEAR DG834(G) only.
		Bug Fix: Adjusted Telnet Rx Noise retrieval code to allow for router error.

1.9e	13 Jul	Fixed bug causing Tx Noise graph to always return 0.

1.9d	13 Jul	Minor bug fixes.
		Improved login procedure.

1.9c	11 Jul	Added facility to attempt to work with routers which have decimal and thousands
		  separators "reversed" by UK standards.
		Graphs can now be selected via menu item for adding to Log or not.
		Juggled with positions of "mark" buttons to make them correspond with graph's
		  tabs.  Upper tab and upper button = upload. Lower tab and lower button = download.


1.9	08 Jul	Fixed problem with dragging locked graphs causing system error.
		Added capture facilities to Telnet graphs. Scheduled capture is set using
		  a popup 'checkable' menu item.
		Added similar scheduled capture menu item to main graphs for compatibility and
		  convenience. This simply 'mimics' the existing checkboxes.
		Tightened some code which may improve cpu usage. Fixed bug where selected 
		  telnet graphs were being plotted even when Telnet was not selected.


1.8.1	06 Jul	Attempting to find on-going problem where RouterStats returns rubbish
		values under some conditions. Have re-worked http search code.
		IMPORTANT: Delete routerstats.ini and begin with default values.

1.8	06 Jul	Added Tx Sync Speed graph.
		various minor bug fixes.

1.7	03 Jul	Added 2nd User-defined graph.
