Read SMS Messages on a bigpond 4G 760s

Login to the Aircard using Putty on the Aircard's COM port
(from a whirlpool post)

If you don't mind the inconvenience of AT commands, put the 760S into text-mode:

AT+CMGF=1
(this needs doing every time the modem has been reset, eg. by power cycling). The default is PDU-mode (as received, encoded in hex).

Then read all messages:
AT+CMGL="ALL"

Finally, you'll need to eventually clean them up (individually) to make room for more – eg:
AT+CMGD=2
where the 2 is the number of the message you want to delete – you'll see those numbers in the read command.

The easiest way to clean out all messages is one command with flags. E.g:
AT+CMGD=0,4
In this case flag 4 ignores all indexes and deletes everything in all stores including both recieve & sent. Flags 0 to 3 are more selective.

Tip to create an underline on a heading shorter than the heading itself

You can use a pseudo element with :before (or :after ): h1 { font - weight : 300 ; display : inline - block ; padding - bottom : 5px ; position : relative ; } h1 : before { content : "" ; position : absolute ; width : 50 %; height : 1px ; bottom : 0 ; left : 25 %; border - bottom : 1px solid red ; } http://jsfiddle.net/9e27b/ This is another solution that centers the heading, the problem here is that the underline gets shorter as the column gets shorter. h2 {   display: inline-block;   padding-bottom: 15px;   position: relative;   width: 100% ;   text-align: center; } h2:before{     content: "";     position: absolute;     width: 8%;     height: 1px;     bottom: 0;     left: 46%;     border-bottom: 1px solid red; }

The web.config no extension mime problem Lets Encrypt on IIS/Windows

  Tip when using LetsEncrypt in Windows - Feature Requests - Let's Encrypt Community Support In a paragraph, just use the web.config file to set the mime type, eg...  After trying to figure out why my Lets Encrypt failed to generate in Windows, and discovering that it's the no extension mime type problem, I wondered whether certbot could fill in the missing gap. All that is needed is the following web.config file to be placed in the same directory as the challenge <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <configuration> <system.webServer> <staticContent> <mimeMap fileExtension="." mimeType="text/xml" /> </staticContent> </system.webServer> </configuration> Because there's no mime type for files without an extension on IIS, IIS sends back a 404 when verification happens. The web.config file above sets the mime type. After I created the .well-known
