I've just installed the Huawei HG630b as a replacement for the Technicolor 589nV2 and have been working my way through the configuration.
On the Technicolor, I was able to telnet into the modem and change the default DNS Server settings in order to use OpenDNS. I can't do that on the Huawei - Ideas? (I'm able to telnet to the device, but the username/password combinations I have won't allow me access).
On the Technicolor, I was able to enter a user friendly name for all the devices that were connected via Wifi and LAN cable and was also able to specify to always use the same IP address for that device. I see that on the Huawei I can set a permanent lease, which suits me, but I cannot see where I can provide a user friendly name for the connected device. (Its very useful when setting up a NAT!)
Finally, I have a subdomain that I would like to use with DDNS. The Technicolor had a few more options for services, but the Huawei only has 1.. Although there is an option to 'roll your own', but I'm not sure if the settings are working. I'm using FreeDNSafraid.org with a username & password and have a Direct URL that keeps it updated.
At this stage, these are the things I'm missing.. and I'd love to get them resolved and my config backed up and secured.
Cheers...
