I use Reliance Broadband Internet connection. Even though I use an unlimited 4mbps connection, I have to login through their web interface and it is annoying.

So I created a gem. My first gem actually.

It’s called login_reliance.

You can install it using

gem install login_reliance

After installing, you can run the gem using the command

login_reliance

The first time you run the script, it will prompt you to enter the username and password. You can choose to save the login information in a file. The information will be stored in a file in the home directory.

Sometimes the connection is buggy and won’t login on the first try. To keep looping till you are successfully logged in, you can use

login_reliance -r

You can checkout the code at https://github.com/rakeshbs/login_reliance. Feel free to modify and use it as you like.
