Connecting through a Telnet Session

Features of the Netopia 4741 can be configured through the console screens.
Before you can access the console screens through Telnet, you must have:
A network connection locally to the router or IP access to the router.
Note: Alternatively, you can have a direct serial console cable connection using the provided console cable for
your platform (PC or Macintosh) and the Console port on the back of the router. For more information on
attaching the console cable, see
Telnet software installed on the computer you will use to configure the router
Configuring Telnet software
If you are configuring your router using a Telnet session, your computer must be running a Telnet software
program.
If you connect a PC with Microsoft Windows, you can use a Windows Telnet application or simply run Telnet
from the Start menu.
