Since the latest firmware update a few weeks ago, the reconnect perl script no longer works :-( According to the message in the o2 forum from "o2_Giulia", the function to obtain a new IP number is no longer available:

all o2 Homeboxes 2 with the designation 6441 have indeed recently received a new software update. I regret that the function you requested is no longer available. However, the IP can still be changed via the reset. Please let us know if you have any questions about this.
( The discussion is at hilfe (dot) o2online (dot) de / router-software-internet-telefonie-34/internet-reconnect-mit-o2-homebox-6441-574206 )

By "reset", she means power off and on, which takes several minutes, and can't be done automatically. So, things don't look good for using this router with JDownloader anymore. Unless Giulia is wrong, and someone can figure out how to reset the IP number from a script, probably a different modem/router would be needed. Does anyone have a suggestion for an off-the-shelf one that works with o2, and has a good reset script?
