Kobo Libra 2 - telnet enabled?

Parsons · Yesterday, 08:41 PM

I have a Kobo Libra 2 (firmware 4.38.23038). I thought that I could enable telnet on it by using devmodeon but that doesn't seem to work. When devmodeon is enabled, I can see the additional menu items, but I can't open a telnet session as the connection is refused.

I can open telnet sessions to other devices on the network but not to the ip of the Kobo.

Am I missing something simple here, or must I install nicklemenu to enable telnet on the Kobo Libra 2?

You can only enable telnet through NickelMenu in the latest firmware, and the login credentials are now admin/admin.
