Some notes on my upgrading of a Efficient Networks EN5861 ADSL Router.
I didn't know the password or the IP address the thing was set to. It was not the default 192.168.254.254...
3 wire RS232 interface appears to work fine. Connect TX RX and Ground to the PC. Connect CTS to RTS together.
9600 8N1
The thing talks to me!
Use the serial number!
eth ip addr 192.168.255.3 255.255.255.0
I was then able to ping the thing.
addTelnetFilter 192.168.255.0 192.168.255.255
system telnetport default
Then I could telnet!
eth list
The following message:
Duplicate route 0.0.0.0 found on remote 'internet'
Doing a
remote list
showed the router had several conflicting configurations.
I used
remote del <config name>
to kill them all.
I used the web interface to create a new configuration. (Again)
Set the authentication to CHAP
My first WAN connection was when I did a
call internet
After spending 30 seconds inactive the Dial on Demand (DOD) timer would drop the ATM VC. Fixed with a:
system onewan off
Digging through the manual it can be configured as a "CO" !
