That's interesting. Has anyone tried to receive data from a gps tracker in php? Can't implement socket server in php. It seems to work, but there is no data. The decision on pure php, without everyones and other is interesting. Just a server, dedicated ip and php. Who has any thoughts on this?

Install WireShark (sniffer) and monitor: something comes from the beacon and what exactly.

tcpdump, netcat and forward to writing your own servers (if it works over TCP). You just keep in mind that most likely there is a protocol on top of it. You can look for node.js implementations and try porting to php.

I am interested in this topic myself. Here I posted the implementation on node.js in open access, but I need to finish it a bit.
