Talk:Changing workgroup

I am trying to change my workgroup on my SPP Pro HD r1.8 by following these instructions. First thing I had to do was enable Telnet in my Windows 7. I've tried to get onto the SSP, but I telnet comes back with "Could not open connection to the host, on port 23: Connect failed" So, I took it off the network, and connected directly to PC with ethernet cable. still the same.

I have read on the IOMEGA forum that telnet has been disabled in "the new firmware" -whichever version that is - I'm guessing r1.8 - the post carries on by saying it needs to be re-enabled. Now I'm not sure if that was an instruction, or a comment for the wish-list.

So presently, I'm stuck, and would appreciate some clarity. I'm only trying to change the workgroup, in reallity there is no need, as the unit is accessible from all Win7 machines on the network. It's a question of being tidy. Well that and when you navigate the network using the TV interface, the first sub-menu consists of 2 entries ( WORKGROUP and MY_GROUP ) which means one extra press to highlight MY_GROUP before selecting, and drilling down further.--87.198.8.213 19:16, December 6, 2009 (UTC)Dennis_W 091206


 * The r1.8 firmware does have telnet disabled. You can enable it by following the enable telnet directions.  There's instructions for both enabling it on Vista AND on the ScreenPlay Pro HD.  --JCoug 23:29, December 6, 2009 (UTC)
