remote reboot of orbi systems
i have current versions of code on all devices. I want to reboot the router AND ALL THE SATELLITES remotely (with software). When I connect with a browser - I see no way to reboot anything. If there...
thanks - the telnet sounds promising... except I get this...
telnet 192.168.1.2
Connecting To 192.168.1.2...Could not open connection to the host, on port 23: Connect failed
are we not using 23? Any ideas?
thanks!

Did you enable telnet on the RBR and RBS first under IPaddress/debug.htm?
apparently not. Do you mean something like 192.168.1.1/IPaddress/debug.htm ? or is there something in the software config? The first gets me 404 and I can't find anywhere to enable telnet. Can you tell me where this setting is?
thanks
telnet is enabled on the Orbi "debug" web page, which is usually at http://orbilogin.net/debug.htm
An alternate URL is http://<IP of router>/debug.htm, which for my Orbi is http://192.168.1.1/debug.htm
"Enable Telnet" is toward the bottom of the page.
thanks much - that did it for the RBR50 base and satellie. The RBS40V Orbi Voice allows me a debug.htm menu as well - but it is not the same as the RBR50 and TELNET is not an option.
thanks,
JOE
