Dynamic DNS
Immediately after the cellular modem connects to the Verizon ISP, the station registers itself with the dynamic name service, dyndns.com.
So, a good remote check on whether the cellular link is modem and router are working is to login to our account at http://dyndns.com
and check the times of the host registrations.
...
Once you're logged in, click on the My Hosts link. You will see the 7 isfs stations, and two spares, along with the iss systems. The time (MST) that a station last registered with dyndns is shown. Click on Host Update Logs to see a listing of all recent registrations.
ping
Each of the stations should also be reachable via ping:
