accessing hub remotely

i am unable to access the hub remotely or telnet too it, which is something i would like to do. anyone give me any pointers in what i need to set up in the firewall etc... i have tried some rules but they do not seem to work.

thanks

This works on a Speedtouch 716 / 780 WL so may work on the Home Hub

To access the Home Hub from the WAN port you will need to use the tech username. This can be enabled under the Toolbox/Remote Assistance section of the hub's Web interface;

http://192.168.1.254/cgi/b/ras/?ce=1&be=0&l0=2&l1=0

By default this times out after 20minutes (not very usefull), but by entering

Code:
ystem ra config timeout=28417210


Into the CLI you can change this to about 55 years or so.

thanks for info. So there is no way to set up telnet into it?

I'm sure there is, but I'll have to do some further digging on that one
