    Default technicolor TG582n DNS settings

    Hi there

    I have a someone who wants a roku box.
    Now they have it, I find out they have this sh!t provider modem technicolor TG582n.
    I've looked everywhere to enter Unotv DNS setting but nothing.

    Can I connect the roku box to a old Optus modem which I can enter the DNA settings and then connect the Optus modem to the piece of sh!t technicolor TG582n ?????

    If so can someone please help me?

    Disable DNS and use something else as your DNS server?

    Better to get another Modem/Router other than a technicolor TG582n
    I went to the Netgear D6300 WiFi Modem Router
    and works a treat with Telstra

    Or maybe try one these I found

    But Before You Begin "You must set a static IP address on your PC"


    Make sure other devices are connected to the modem via DHCP
    Check Telnet has been installed

    Log into the TG582n modem interface Image
    Click Home Network in the left-hand menu and select Interfaces
    Click LocalNetwork
    Click Configure in the top-right corner
    Unselect Use DHCP Server and click Apply
    Click Add under DHCP Pools

    Open a Command Prompt (i.e. Start Menu, Run and type cmd in Windows XP)
    Input Telnet 192.168.1.254 and press Enter
    Input Administrator and press Enter twice
    Input dhcp server lease flush and press Enter
    Input saveall when you return to the Administrator prompt and press Enter
    Return to your browser
    Refresh the LocalNetwork page
    The DHCP pool should now have Edit beside it
    Click Edit
    Input the following information into the appropriate fields:
    Start Address: The first address to be assigned
    End Address: The last address to be assigned
    Server: The new IP address
    Gateway: The new IP address
    Subnet: The new subnet mask
    Click Apply
    Wait for the LocalNetwork Overview page to load
    Click Configure
    In the IP addresses sub-section:
    Click Edit beside 192.168.1.254
    Input the appropriate information into the following fields:
    IP address: The IP address you entered in Step 15
    Mask: The subnet mask you entered in Step 15
    Select Use DHCP Server
    Click Apply
    Change your LAN settings to Obtain an IP address automatically

    Your PC should now get an IP address off the modem from your new DHCP pool that matches the IP address of the modem and you should be able to access the internet as per normal.

    Optional: The following steps only need to be applied if you intend using the 'Content Sharing' feature of the modem.

    Open a command prompt
    Enter Telnet 192.168.1.254 and press Enter
    Enter Administrator and press Enter twice
    Enter dhcp server lease add clientid=$_LMACADDR pool=LAN_private addr={Some address in your new pool} leasetime=0 and press Enter
    When you return to the Administrator prompt, enter saveall and press Enter
    Enter system reboot and press Enter
    Wait for the modem to reboot


    Or

    1) Have your chosen DNS Server IP addresses handy. (OpenDNS / Google etc,.)

    2) On Windows, enable the Telnet client option. (Control Panel ->Programs -> Windows Features)

    3) Open a Command prompt and run

    Telnet 10.0.0.138

    4) When prompted, enter the username and password for your modem. Scarily the default is admin / [blank]

    5) At the modem's telnet prompt, enter this command to view the current entries. Typically there are 2 dynamically assigned servers Telstra assigns on connection with a metric of 10.

    dns server route list

    6) Add your desired DNS Server: change the IP address to your selection

    dns server route add dns=208.67.220.220 metric=1 intf=Internet

    7) Add your second DNS Server selection:

    dns server route add dns=203.50.2.71 metric=2 intf=Internet

    8) Verify the changes:

    dns server route list

    Your two chosen DNS servers should appear at the top of the list because we assigned metric values < 10.

    9) Save these changes

    config saveall

    10) Reboot the modem

    system reboot

    11) Close the Telnet window. (It dies when the modem reboots)

    Thanks for the reply.
    I just went out and bought her a netgear D600 modem/router.
    Technicolor is in the draw now.
    Easy swap over.
    Cheers.
