NAME

       airport-modem  -  Modem  monitoring  and  hangup  utility  for  the  original  Apple AirPort Base Station
       ("Graphite"), the Lucent RG-1000 base station and the Apple Airport Extreme base station

SYNOPSIS

       airport-modem

DESCRIPTION

       airport-modem allows you to monitor the state  of  the  internal  modem  of  your  base  station  and  to
       start/stop the modem connection.

       On  the  AirPort Extreme base station, the modem utility can also display the approximate duration of the
       modem connection.

OPTIONS

       airport-modem  accepts  no  command-line  options.  airport-modem  is  a  wrapper   script   around   the
       AirportBaseStationHangup.jar jar file located in /usr/share/java/airport-utils.

       You  can  set  the  JAVACMD  environment  variable to use a specific JVM instead of the one chosen by the
       wrapper script. Set the DEBUG environment variable to 1 to get the debug output from the wrapper script.

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

       DEBUG  Set this variable to 1 to get the debug output from the wrapper script.

       JAVACMD
              The full path to the Java Virtual Machine to use. By default, the wrapper uses JAVACMD; if  it  is
              not  set,  it  looks  for  JAVA_BINDIR/java, then for JAVA_HOME/bin/java before looking for a java
              executable in the PATH. In the latter case, the JVM  used  can  be  configured  using  the  Debian
              alternatives system (see update-alternatives(8)).

       JAVA_HOME
              The full path where your JDK/JRE is installed.

       JAVA_BINDIR
              The full path to the directory where the java executable is located.

       JAVA_ARGS
              Extra command-line arguments to be passed to the Java Virtual Machine.
