Command Line Interface (Telnet): WHA-5500CPE-NT can be managed through
the command line interface (CLI). It is possible to write a text script file, and then
paste it into the CLI to execute several commands at once. However, Telnet does
not encrypt its message. Therefore, it is not secure. The default Telnet
management port is TCP port 23.
To use the CLI, please open the command line window. Then type “telnet
192.168.1.1” to start.
When asked for password, please enter “airlive”.
To get a list of available command and their usage, please type “help” on the
command prompt.
