Telneting into my wireless router
Hello,
To keep my router on top form and free from noise I am trying to write some kind of batch file that will telnet into my router and reboot it. I will have this running at 5am every morning with Scheduled Tasks. My initial problem is that I cannot log into my router (D-Link DSL-G604T) - after I input the user/password it says "Login incorrect". Out of the box, the password to get into the router's web interface is admin/admin. But since then I have changed them to something else. I can log into the web interface no probs, but for telnet I have tried...
admin / admin
admin / password
admin, with a blank password
and also
[the username/password I've set to get into the router via web browser].
None of these work. Any ideas??
The manual is no help, and D-Link Tech Support, although have confirmed that this feature is possible for the DSL-G604T, cannot help me log in either.
Thanks

Have you tried a "reset" and try to connect directly to telnet?

Hi there, I've had a bit of a chance tonight to fiddle around with my router. First I backed up my router's settings but exporting to an xml file. Then I completely reset all the router's settings back to factory defaults and then tried to connect via telnet. I tried all the combinations that I had done previously but still the same "Login incorrect" message.
Any further ideas?
Thanks
