Hi everyone , I'm trying to get into my router so I can portforward for ps3 connection purposes. There is only one problem though. My ISP is surewest broadband and they don't allow their customers to have access to their router logins, so I've tried every default login for the netgear routers and none of them worked. I think my only option is to telnet into my router and recover the login myself. So I downloaded a program called telnetEnable.exe that is supposed to allow me to do that, but when I try to run this line of code in the command prompt: (telnetEnable.exe 192.168.1.1 28C68E212EAD Gearguy Geardog) ... (telnetEnable.exe is the file, 192.168.1.1 is my router IP, 28C68E212EAD is my MAC Address, and Gearguy Geardog is the telnet login), it tells me that "'telnetEnable' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program, or batch file." I know it's an operable program because it's an executable file and it opens a window when I click on it. I think it might have something to do with environmental variables, but I don't really know what I'm doing with those. Does anyone on TTG have any ideas as to what the problem might be? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!
