Firmware V1.12.0.18 Discussion

This does indeed appear to be based on (identical to?) the last private beta V1.12.0.16 and has been released to the public.  Hope it helps!   Guest mode AP isolation finally works 100% over IPv4...

Am a little over my skis - am running off a mac.  When I go to http://ROUTERIP/debug.htm, I get a 404 (file or directory not found) error.  When I got terminal, I get ot he routerip directory but get the following error - routerip: nodename nor servname provided, or not known.

 

Any advice on how to proceed?

 

Thanks

You need to replace "routerip" with the actual IP address of your router, which by default will be 192.168.1.1

Thanks. when I go to terminal and type: "telnet orbilogin.com", I get this error: 

 

telnet: connect to address 192.168.1.1: Connection refused
telnet: Unable to connect to remote host

 

what is supposed to happen?  When I go to IP address/debug.htm, I get the Orbi frame of the page and then a spinning circle and Please Wait message.

 

I am not very familar with telnet.

    Yes, you need to enable telnet on the router. Just go to:

     

    orbilogin.com/debug.htm

     

    and when that comes up, click on the "Enable telnet" box. Then you'll be able to telnet into your Orbi router. 

     

    If you want to telnet to your satellite, just get the satellite IP address out of the "Attached devices" list from the Orbi web admin GUI, and go to:

     

    <satellite IP address>/debug.htm

     

    and enable telnet for that. Here "<satellite IP address>" would be replaced by something like 192.168.1.101 or whatever your satellite's IP address is.

     

    Don't forget to go back to the debug.htm interfaces and disable telnet when you're done using it.

    Ah, sorry, I see that I didn't read quite far enough...you did try to enable telnet, but the debug.htm page wouldn't open. In that case, I'd suggest turning off both the router and satellite, and the turning them back on (power-cycle both units). When they come back up, try the "orbilogin.com/debug.htm" again, and it should come up. Then you can enable telnet to the router.

    Thanks.  Will try that in the later and hopefully that does the trick.  Appreciate the clarification.
