PLW1000 Telnet Access
Hi,
I'm hoping someone can help me with this issue with my PLW1000.
I am developing a program for my own use that will periodically attach via telnet to each of the 4 WiFi Access Points in my network. Once logged in I can use the WOL assoclist to retrieve a list of devices associated with the AP. I have this working with my R7000 and also an older WNDR3700 but I cannot figure out how to enable Telnet on my 2 PLW1000’s (which are Powerline Extenders). Can anyone tell me the correct procedure to follow, I’ve tried telnetenable.exe but that didn’t work.
The odd thing is that last night I was playing around on my iPad with an app called iTerminal. I tried to Telnet into one of the PLW1000’s using their utility. At this point I hadn’t done anything about trying to enable Telnet. And what do you know, it worked! I tried with the other PLW1000 and was also successful in getting in via Telnet. I played with wl assoc and wl assoclist and saw the network details and the associated clients. I then logged into both devices via the web interface to check what it was showing vs the results of wl assoclist.
When I subsequently went back to try and Telnet in I couldn’t connect to either of them.
I’ve tried rebooting the devices. I’ve even tried a factory reset on one of them, to no avail. Why I was able to attach originally I have no idea.
Can anyone shed light on this for me?
Thanks in advance
Mike

Re: PLW1000 Telnet Access
Port 23 is usually the one used for Telnet. I was never able to get it to work after my initial attempt described above. I ran a port scan against mine and the only open ports were 80 and 1050 which are both used for http. So I would say that there is no way to Telnet into the PLW1000.
