enable telnet on R6300v2
Model R6300v2, stock firmware V1.0.4.24_10.0.87. OS: Win7/64 on my desktop. I'm trying to get telnet access to the router. I have tried the telnetenable, telnetenable2, and telnetgear utili...
For others:
http://www.antinode.info/nte/index.html
Download & extract nte-05/nte-05_win.zip
Run it from the Windows CLI.
My apologies. The brevity of my description assumed others had run into the same issue.
Tried means:
In PuTTY — the router's current address (10.0.0.1) on Port 23, "Telnet" radio button selected, option for "Close on exit" set to Never
Result: Black PuTTY window. Dialogbox errmsg "PuTTY Fatal Error" (titlebar) and "Network error: Connection refused"
(Port 223 was suggested by someone elsewhere as an alternative for these routers)
In telnetenable2 — (yes, this is the MAC addy of the router seen from the LAN)
telnetenable2 10.0.0.1 04A1512574CA admin [my router pwd]
returns
"starting ..."
"creating pkt..."
"sending pkt..."
"done."
But still can't telnet to router. Same err as above.
In telnetgear.exe —
Router local IP, MAC addy, setup login & password, and hit Connect
"ERROR 10060: :Connection timed out."
Is there anythying else I can try? And do you know where I can find a Windows version of nte? Thank you.
> [...] do you know where I can find a Windows version of nte?
There's a link on the web page:
NTE 0.5 Executable Kit
o Windows executables kit:
If you use the NTE Windows executables which I built, then you may
also need to install the appropriate Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 SP1
Redistributable Package. For details, see:
https://community.netgear.com/t5/x/x/m-p/1388903
(That thread provides a solution to another possible problem.)
I'm sure I have Msft's C++ RTL, but the link to nte that you provided does not appear to work.

Which "the link"? Re: "does not appear to work", see "tried" + "to
no avail", above.Apologies. The link wasn't. However, I did find your exefile and ran it, with this result:

AND THAT GOT ME IN. THANK YOU! Have the # prompt and "nvram show" tells me what I need.
