    dm500/linux keep alive

    Hi,
    Im pretty new at using linux let alone the locked version that is on the dm500. I've been pulling my hair out for the last week trying to get a solution to my problem but I have to admit I now need help. I need some sort of keep alive to be sent out from my box to keep a 3g connection open. If i telnet to the device i can run a ping which works fine but i cant seem to find anyway of automating it on boot up. All boot files are read only and i have tried following some instructions on here to take a snapshot, edit and reinsert (didnt work). I've also tried a script plugin which runs a script (not a problem pressing the yellow button to do this) but when you exit it, it closes the ping. nohup isnt present in the image so i cant even use that.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Working...
