I was playing around with telnet and stupidly disabled telnet (DT) Now I can't get in anymore and debug things. I've never used this before - how can I enable it again? Thanks

Thanks Frank i thought I had read about it in a forum a while back but never got around to it. First on my list when I get back tonight.

Yes thats exactly the code I tried (the idea came to me while reading your second response for some reason) but it isnt doing anything for me I'm going to have to try the Java console as Chris suggested when i get home tonight and figure out why this isn't doing the trick..... Rand - the other problem I have (or rather my wife has) with the controlinc is that the status light is extremely bright. Its amazing how much it lights up the bedroom at night. It does 'anchor' the device to one spot well though: no matter how many times I tell her, all the cordless phones in the house are lying her bed by the end of each day!

No, i was serious - i tried it, nothing happened and presumed that no signal was sent from the switchlinc if already off. I will have to revisit this and try it again.

Thanks for all the options Rand. Fast-on works for me but lowers my WAF. Looks like I'll have to stick with the present tap-n-hold at night. If only 'if status is off and control switched off' would work - i could find a thousand uses for that Re your last suggestion - I do have a remotelinc (w/ hall, bathroom stairs/bedroom lights/all house off) stuck above our headboard and it is great - though it was more 'sightly' with the old X10 slimline stick-a-switch. Just out of curiosity, why do you prefer the controlinc? I thought about getting one for each bedside table but they're so damn big. I moved the one I have out of the bedroom altogether in the end.

Thanks Rand - thats an interesting way to do it I hadnt thought about doing it 'in reverse' like that. The delay that results though is annoying (and my wife hasnt even seen it - there's no way she'll go for it) - its kind of like going back to X10 lol. Any other way?

Probably straight forward, but Is there any way to set an on level from within a program? For example, i would like a bathroom light to come on at 20% if switched on after midnight...or is there a better way to achieve this? Thanks
