Wireless SSH or Telnet login.
Is there a way to login to the router through SSH or Telnet via my wireless network? If not, why?
Re: Wireless SSH or Telnet login.
Yes, you can do this. You need to know the IP address of the router, and the firewall and network configuraton on the router needs to be set correctly. If you use the settings given in the tutorial (including the updates in part 8 or 9) then you should be able to telnet/ssh to the router over wifi. I do this regularly and haven't used an Ethernet cable in several months.

Re: Wireless SSH or Telnet login.
It won't work for me. My network uses 192.168.0.1 as gateway.
Re: Wireless SSH or Telnet login.
I need more information to help you.
Do you know what IP address your router is using? Can you log in using a direct LAN connection to the router? Are you using ssh or telnet? Did you set a root password?
Please post your /etc/config/network, /etc/config/wireless, and /etc/config/firewall files.
How far have you made it thru the wifi radio tutorials, if you are following them?
Are you using the firmware I posted in the tutorials or something else?

Re: Wireless SSH or Telnet login.
Well, I tried a few different ones. I tried 192.168.0.101 and 192.168.0.111 and neither worked. It wouldn't let me connect to the internet when I did that. I can log into the router directly, but only with a 192.168.1.XXX address, not a 192.168.0.XXX one, which is what my wireless network uses. I'll post the contents of those three files tomorrow, it's very late for me, 1:24 am. I have made it to the part where the router will play music. I plan to finish with the screen and dial part later. In the mean time, I want to be able to control it from my laptop.
Re: Wireless SSH or Telnet login.
I dont use either of those ranges, and following the tutorial the asus got assigned an IP off my network and was accessible via that IP.
Check your DHCP server log or status page to see what IP the asus has been assigned.

Re: Wireless SSH or Telnet login.
Also, when I turn off the router, it loses all my added radio stations.

Re: Wireless SSH or Telnet login.
The wireless is actually working now, but I still have the weird not keeping the radio stations problem.
