Please log in for more thread options Recently I was trying to trouble shoot a potential problem with my Speedstream 5861 router (it turned out not to be a problem with the router, but the phone line was down), and somehow I managed to disable telnet access to the router. I can still access the router via the web interface, but would like to restore telnet access so that i can view, for example, the custom firewall rules that I've put in place. Unfortunately, the access control web page no longer shows the radio buttons etc that allow you to turn on telnet access, restrict to LAN, etc. It just says: Telnet Management Custom Access Control List enabled And no apparent way in the web interface to change it. Anyone have any idea how I can fix this without restoring factory settings and having to reconfigure the router from scratch? cc by email appreciated. Thanks, Scott | |||||||||||||

Get a console serial cable. You can still do a console login. Hmm, if you have configured dial backup, then you can't do a console login either. In that case you would have to reset the router to factory defaults. I don't know of any other way. | |||||||||||||

Thanks guys. I've got a console cable, and my wife's old PC has the right kind of serial port. Will try that. | |||||||||||||

You are going to need the special adapter as well.
