Luckily I wasn't trying to do anything urgent; but I discovered that I
can't get a telnet connect to the 675 router connecting my house to
the internet. Data is flowing through the router, I can ping it, and
Cisco Commander can get into it and show me all sorts of stats. I
just can't get a telnet connect. I'm sure I didn't turn off telnet
the last time I messed with it (I probably blocked it to inside IPs
only, but my failing telnet connects are from an inside IP). I'm
pretty sure I *did* turn off the web interface, and I can't get any
web connect to the router either.
I get an immediate rejection of some sort ("Connection to host lost"
from windows telnet), not a timeout.
I haven't tried to do this since I installed Windows 2000 on my new
computer; but I get the failure from other computers, too. I don't
get as far as being asked for a password (and I've got the right
password, I gave it to Cisco Commander to get that connection
working).
Anybody have any clever ideas?
(Yes, I know where the serial cable is if it comes to that.)
