Wed, 30 Nov 2011 00:28:16 +0000 http://nothingbutreboots.com/?p=81#comment-136 The interface references above are a little different if you are using the STATIC IP: O2_ADSL2plus => Static_IP eth_llu => RtEthoA atm_llu => atm_nat Discovered this after resetting to DHCP, dumping user.ini, then reconfiguring to static ip and dumping user.ini again. Hope that helps someone... The interface references above are a little different if you are using the STATIC IP:

O2_ADSL2plus => Static_IP

eth_llu => RtEthoA

atm_llu => atm_nat

Discovered this after resetting to DHCP, dumping user.ini, then reconfiguring to static ip and dumping user.ini again.

Hope that helps someone…

I've logged in as SuperUser, twice. telnet always fails to connect. nmap shows ony port 80 open. I've tried accepting from all on service telnet in firewall config. I've tried setting up telnet server as a shared application. How do I get telnet port active? I’m falling much earlier, I must be missing something here.

Just trying this myself at the moment, after my awful TP-Link all but set itself alight in its death throes. My ADSL2plus connection isn't recreated after removing it. Does anyone have any advice?

The answer is no - the interface is recreated later. Have faith :) Cheers, Luke. Hi John,

Would this not delete the ADSL2+ interface leaving the router to connect through ADSL only? On the first line of the Telnet commands it reads “ip ifdelete intf=O2_ADSL2plus”.

I'd found the link you had, but I'm obviously missing a couple of pointers?! Telnet...tick! telnet commands...tick! Log on to web interface and untick DHCP...tick! * Do you apply here or not? * Back in the telnet, enter the next set of commands, changing to 192.168.2.1 (Edimax BR6547N Gigabit router) where appropriate? 3 instances?...tick! Save the user ini...tick! Check the eth bridge list, all good...tick! Create the SuperUser...tick! Tun off non essentials in web interface...tick! My telnet sessions drops out then? Can't get back into the box? Connect up my router, leave it for about half an hour and it gets an external IP, but no connection? Thoughts please!!! Questions for you!!!
