ISP usage checker / router disabler

westnetusage.py

#!/usr/bin/env python2.7
version = "r7"
# This script gets usage from my ISP's website, checks to see if the current average for the month
# is above their recommended amount per day, then disables the wifi on my router if it is.
# I made this for a household of people who don't understand the consequences of their actions
# (namely, that if you abuse our awesome internet, we all have to suffer with being shaped :( )
# Please, modify this for your own ISP/router and set it up in your own house to help with your daily usage.

#   and also running a web server (http://address needs to be accessible)
