Umm.. it works fine here. Sometimes I get Xs that won't go away without a power cycle, but for the most part, the webui reboot works fine. Automated no less.

It usually works, but is not 100% due to S1 WebUI being somewhat buggy. SSH automation is ideal but not sure how easy it is to do with a windows tool like this(easy to do in linux/mac).

Generally you will find the main issue with rebooting via the webui is that it can under certain circumstances cease responding, therefore will not accept a manual request to restart. VB does not as far as I know, come with any sort of SSH functions prebuilt in, I guess you'd have to embed some sort of ssh client to allow the interface to login via ssh and for example, restart cgminer.

Speed is not really a thing with this type of tool though because no matter what, its a hell of a lot faster than manually logging in to the web interface of x amount of ants, which is most peoples experience who have little idea what ssh is. Resources wise, how could it use any more resources than a user manually doing the same thing. I made something similar to this a while back, but its main mission was to output a web page so I can view the status of the ants remotely ( rather than forward ports to the ants ), I have it run every 10 minutes, grabs the stats and writes them to a webpage, basically the same way this app gathers data for its gui, works well enough.

I think the only thing to watch out for in terms of resources, is not having it run its checks too closely together, for example nothing more strenuous than say what a user would inflict on an Ant via manually viewing the stats page via a browser.

Brilliant tool thank you!

Just to report that the auto-reboot thing doesn't work... (for me anyway). I've waiting for quite a while but it keeps hashing away without a reboot... (not to worry though).
