Hello
tl-wr741nd ver.4.25, OS Win10x64
Im install last frimware from here "/snapshots/targets/ar71xx/generic/" -factory,
After reset, i try to connect to my device with PuTTY (telnet 192.168.1.1 port 23), for set password and subsequent setup UI.
But, PuTTY returns an error: "connection refuse". i guess its problem with only telnet connnection, because I was able to connect using WinSCP and I can see files on the router.
so, this is the problem and I do not know what to do next, now my router looks like brick.
if you need more information, tell me.
thank you for help.

PS:I used a translator for several phrasesf and dont know english grammar,
sorry, if I did not express myself clearly

What happens if you try to connect to port 22 i/o port 23?

Thete's no need for telnet. Just SSH on port 22. There's no password needed on first connection so you can set one.

its really works, must be the FAQ is out of date.
