We just recently started using a lot of the RB751 High powered WiFi units for our residential clients. The sales guy sold an upgrade of one of these to a remote customer (over an hour away) and we just shipped him one, "knowing" that we could config it remotely.
After jerking around for a while over the phone, we could see the LAN connection on the wireless radio come and go as he unplugged the unit, but we still couldn't see it by MAC to telnet in to program it, etc. Turns out the default config on the residential router totally blocks access to Port 1 by....1) not having that port in the MAC server list, by having a FW rule, and by something else (*which I am not sure what that is). Fixing those things above, I still had to remove the default config from the router (after a fresh /sys reset) and then all is find. I am kinda curious what third setting would need to have been adjusted to make MAC remote access available on Port 1 Hmmmm... Paul Paul McCall, Pres.
