Logging in

Once you've activated your telnet server in Tweaks (and exited tweaks!) you'll now be able to connect using software such as PuTTY, SolarPuTTY, Hyperterm.

You'll need the IP of the device, found below.

IP

Disabling authentication

Although this is not recommended on other peoples WIFI, when you're at home on your own WIFI this is absolutely fine (or any other secure WIFI!)

Head over to Tweaks -> Network -> Telnet and enable:

Now restart the telnet server, there will no longer be a login screen.

Changing the default user or password

pwd

The default username will be onionusr

The default password will be onionos

The file this is stored in is kept in /mnt/SDCARD/.tmp_update/config and is called .auth.txt. There's various ways to edit this:

Connect your SD to your PC and edit the file

Use FTP/SFTP

Use the built in text editor on HTTP fileserver

Once your password is changed, restart telnet for it to take effect.

Security

Although we've taken every precaution to offer as much security as possible, remember to keep your Onion safe. It is not recommended you use telnet on an insecure WIFI network that is open or public as traffic is unencrypted and transported in plain text, for this reason we strongly recommend you toggle telnet off when you're on the move!
