For extended monitoring the Barimon function can be used. Please go to http://www.barimon.net and click on the "create a new free demo project" link. In the Barimon-settings you have to set the MAC address of the Exstreamer. Now you are able to sent the status of the device to the Barimon-server. At the Exstreamer under "Advanced Settings - Remote Management" you have to set the Barimon URL to "http://www.barimon.net" and the "MTELL Report Periode" to 5 seconds.
On the following link you can find a Youtube video showing all the possibilities for the Streaming Client monitoring:
