ZTE-Wrapper

An API wrapper for modern ZTE routers using a more advanced authentication method. This has only been tested on an MC888B. If you have any feedback, please share!

Notes

  • When referring to "megabytes" or "bytes", they are in base 2 format (e.g. 1Gib = 1024Mib)
  • Authenticating (aka. running any of the API calls) logs off other clients from the admin web panel.
  • Even thought the apn wrapper should be able to change DNS settings, I've found that it doesn't work. This might have been patched in an update?

Why?

I wanted to harvest statistics from the router to my Prometheus instance. I might actually rewrite the entire admin webpage since it's kind of horrible
