Re: Telnet to reboot router

graham@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx declared for all the world to hear...
Suppose I have a server running 24/7 and I want to reset its internet
connection when the connection is detected as having failed. Is there any
way to use Telnet to reboot a Vigor router, using a single command line or
some scripting method?

I can see that:
Telnet <router IP>
Respond to password prompt with correct password
Send command : "sys reboot"
... is the general idea

Any ideas gratefully received.

There is a list of telnet commands on the draytek support site, and
rebooting is one of the supported commands, so it's pretty much as you
described.
