Netgear DG834g v4

[Robo]

OK I have screwed my modem up by upgrading to DGT team software today, since then I have not been able to access it from 192.168.0.1.
I can telnet and ping the modem tho with no problem, I have also tried to restore the origional Netgear config via rescue software that Netgear supply.
Anyone help me with this please?

Very strange that it came turned off,

telnet or ssh not sure which

command manage http local on


Gonna have to update sometime newer version out

Try the netgear firmware recovery tool.

[Robo]

Netgear recovery won't even touch it and YES I have put the origional image in same folder.
Is there any other software that can access the modem, or does anyone know a link that is idiot proof to do it by telnet?

[miken]

Use putty to ssh http://the.earth.li/~sgtatham/putty/latest/x86/putty.exe
User: root
Password: what ever you set it to

then enter the command
command manage http local on


If that doesnt work, tried rebooting the router?

[Robo]

just got into it by Telnet and got this lot:

BusyBox v1.01 (2008.11.28-10:31+0000) Built-in shell (ash)
Enter 'help' for a list of built-in commands.

# help

Built-in commands:
-------------------
        . : alias bg break cd chdir continue eval exec exit export false
        fg hash help jobs kill let local pwd read readonly return set
        shift times trap true type ulimit umask unalias unset wait.

Right I will try putty now

Ok then via telnet do
command manage http local on

# help

The command exists even though it isnt in the help page

[Robo]

Tried on both SSH and Telnet, telnet gave me this :
# command manage http local on
Can't change management mode: leaving...
#

Couldn't get SSH to anything at all.

Still no joy with this modem so I guess that I will have to get another 1, anyone suggest a comparable modem?

Yipeeeeeee got the bugger working again. 30 minutes with tech support from Netgear with a very nice Indian chap who obviously wanted me running again, anyhow he said I needed to try it on another computer which I did, fired up on 3rd computer I tried. I am now a happy bunny, thanks to all who tried to help.
