Some sort of watchdog timer on the server, and if several remote access
tests fail, send a reset to the modem. If your modem/router has a web
interface with a reset button on a form (most do), find the path to it,
and set a HTTP GET or POST to it with the right path. For instance,
mine could probably be done with a command line like the following:
wget --post-data="restoreFlag=0&RestartBtn=RESTART" --http-user=someone --http-password=something http://router/Forms/tools_system_1?
NB: That's just from a *quick* look at the wget man file and the source
code for one of *my* router's admin pages. It's not quite right, but on
the right path. Just a bit more research is needed to get it right.
