Ambit 255 - Telnet trouble

[witchy]

I'm trying to Telnet into a Ambit 255 which already has Infinite firmware installed, but everytime I try a connection I get a weird 'Humorous error' telling me I can't connect, I've made sure the username and password are fine as I can connect to the WebInterface via my browser.

Any Ideas guys?

OK, got this sorted - user error, lol

unce:

I've edited the default username and password, will this stop it from being bricked by Viirgin?

yes make sure its the telnet password and username you've changed and also do the command for maxdloadtries 0 or in configurator under force config put 0 in the box that should prevent your modem from being hit.

My WebInterface is still the default but the Telnet one is now private.

You don't happen to know the maxdloadtries commands off-hand do you mate?
