said by dynodb: Open a command prompt (DOS) window and type: telnet 192.168.0.1 I apologize for not having made that part clear. Since lots of folks have never heard of a "command prompt (DOS) window", let's make is SUPER easy.
The easiest way to telnet to your modem (if you use Windows) is:
a) Hold down the Windows key (has windows icon, is near your left Ctrl and Alt keys)
b) press 'R' (for Run). A small window will pop up
c) type "cmd" (without the quotes) and press enter
d) now you should see a new text window, with that infamous "C:\>" prompt.
e) follow dynodb's instruction: type "telnet 192.168.0.1" and press enter. You should now be prompted for a login id by your modem.
f) (after you are done with the modem, close the DOS window by clicking on the window-close X at the top right.) |

| LOL - actually if someone had said "command prompt" or DOS window I'd know exactly what you're talking about. Alas I still have a few old DOS commands rattling around in my old mom brain 
Thanks for the replies!!  |
