Can I use Telnet?

No. Telnet is very insecure and we do not allow telnet access. We do allow SSH access which is a secure form of telnet.

 

You can download a SSH client called putty from the below links.
 



 

This program is very easy to use and best of all it's free. You can view the documentation at the below link.

 


 

You will need to download putty. Open it, put in your IP address as the host and select SSH. Then click open. You will see a window that starts with "The servers host key is not cached in the registry." just click ok. The telnet window will then open and ask for your username then password. You will then be logged on.
