i wanna 2 change the date and time on router, how can i do that by using telnet commands??? also i need some help about using telnet command?
hwclock
Grrr. Opera crashed after I composed the reply.
AFAIK 500t is running Linux ?
I usually use hwclock(1) on my GNU/Linux box to query/set the time/date.
you:
telnet 10.1.1.1 "your router IP"
Enter your usernet and password.
A telnet session is no more than a shell running on the other box.
There's a probability that you'll find many GNU/Linux basic commands there. but I can't be sure since this is an embedded device.
Try yourself and see.

docs
read your router docs
AFAIK for the time run "date"
I used to be indecisive .. but now I'm not so sure
if it was linux
runing date will display the time only.
to set it
date -s 20050523hhmmss
- e.g date -s 10:10
this will be on the fly .
if you want to set the hardware clock to read your current date/time value and write permanent run
clock -w

it depends on u router OIS, c
it depends on u router OIS, check the manual,, telnet isn't the excelent choice when u use Linux box 2 connect other devices like routers, Linux&Unix servers, cuase every thing throght it is plain text. there isn't much 2 learn about telnet itself, just h 2 connect, login , logout, disconnect,,etc..
