I shan’t explain the commands, as the page above pretty much does that, but I will highlight what information is important (bold+underline is important output, underline is custom input [depending upon the output or your choices).
There’s mention on the Net about BT branded routers requiring SSID IDs 1 & 2 to be reserved, so search for that if you need to I just added #1. There’s a dedicated page to adding extra SSIDs (you can have up to 5) I did have to follow that page’s instructions on manually bridging the new SSID. Copy and paste each of the lines below into the telnet window pressing enter after each if the command has been accepted there will be no. Enter the username and password to login to the router by default this is Administrator with a blank password. I used information on this site to add my static IP addresses (“ dhcp server lease add …”). Type 'telnet 192.168.1.254' and press enter. I found a number of sites and CLI PDFs ( e.g., TG787-SIP_CLI.pdf) with more or less information.Īn excellent site to start with is this one. It took a while for me to learn to navigate the PlusNet-branded web-based configuration, but I soon got most of my LAN setting back in.Īnd then it turns out there’s a telnet CLI! To search for references, as there’s little help, know that the router seems to be a Thomson make. My router, a Technicolor TC8717T (dont ask, its the free one from my ISP) provides two wifi networks: TC8717T88 (2.4 GHz) TC8717T88-5G (5 GHz) Regardless of which wifi network Im connected to, the Internet connection will die after about five minutes. I quite like this new router (“Technicolor TG582n FTTC”), especially given that it’s effectively a freebie. The old one had a “guest” WiFi capability which I liked, and so I set about trying to add it to the new one. I recently had to switch out my older router to the latest PlusNet “stock” router as it was playing up.
