    Hi all, i am trying to telnet into my TM600 box. When i type the ip etc and click open it takes me to the dos page asking for stb login. which is the default setting. but then when i go onto enter the password i cannot type anything in. it will only let me enter but then i get an incorrect login error??

    any ideas anyone please.

    If using windows telnet the password is not displayed.

    ie if you have a "no password" just hit enter. If you have a password just type it in and hit enter.

            I think you use TCC to change the password first
