RAX120 SSH access
Hi all, I have a RAX120v1 with last firmware installed ( v1.2.9.52 )
I was able to enable the telnet port so I can logn into the router via telnet terminal on port 23
My question is: being connected into the router via telnet do someone know which linux command I can use to enable the port 22 SSH connection?
I don't even know if an ssh server is active / running on the RAX120 so it's just a matter to somehow enable the firewall to let me use the SSH on port 22 or instead is not possible?

Most likely not possible. SSH may required special keys that are not made public for security reasons.

Re: RAX120 SSH access
Hi and thanks for your reply.
well, I am a beginner so I don't have experience and knowhow, but reading several article on the web I see
someone did it on other netgear router, maybe having Dropbear SSH installed as server..?
Do you know if this would be possible, or any other ways

Re: RAX120 SSH access
What other NG router model was this?
NG removed Telnet access support from most of there newer versions of FW. Though I presume one may have found alternative means to enable telnet access.

Re: RAX120 SSH access
I was able to enable telnet on my RAX120 with very last firmware running.
my problem is now, how can I activate the SSH ?
Is SSH just blocked by firewall? in case which telnet comand I can use to check, verify or evenatually unlock SSH?
Or if SSH server is not there, can I install example dropbear - lightweight SSH2 server
or any other OpenSSH?

Re: RAX120 SSH access
Ah ok, that would be why then. You'll not get SSH access with NG Stock FW.
