Re: Sprint 645 modem with Linksys BEFSR41 Hello, To telnet into the 645 in windows go to Start> Run>Then type telnet (Default Gateway IP) in my case is 192.168.1.1 after that it's going to prompt you for a password then use 1234 for password then it should kick you to the telnet menu. It worked for me and I hope it works for you thanks to Tribby20. Good Luck!

Do you have a Static or Dynamic IP address from Sprint. I have a Dynamic (but will pay for a Static if need be), and when I Select Option 4, then choose RFC1483 as outlined by tibby20, my address type changes to Static automaticily. I think this is why I can't get it to work. I have the 1.5 mbps service by the way. Is this what you have and did you get it to work with your router? Did you have to make any special setting in your router other than PPPoE, user name, and password. Thanks for and help you can give, Bill |

| br408408, I have dynamic IP but I don't have a router. I just wanted to switch it in bridge mode because it wasn't allowing incoming connections for some of my applications. I currently use windows XP and I used the built in PPPOE connection wizard to connect on bridge mode. Now what I did was I went to telnet and changed option 1 and 11 only to ROUTE IP=NO BRIDGE=YES like tribby20 said. After that you might want to try it with your router. Good Luck!!
