I have a Netgear JNR1010 router but I am not able to change the router's root password. Router Firmware Version is 1.0.0.18
I tried multiple commands in the Busybox console that came up,
BusyBox v1.6.1 (2013-06-09 15:21:35 HKT) Built-in shell (ash)
Enter 'help' for a list of built-in commands.

BusyBox is a multi-call binary that combines many common Unix
utilities into a single executable. Most people will create a
link to busybox for each function they wish to use and BusyBox
will act like whatever it was invoked as!

Can anyone please help me on how to change my root password or shutdown the telnet service. I searched for options in the web interface but to no avail.
Please note that I do not want to change the default firmware due to warranty issues.
I need an answer as soon as possible since my network is now vulnerable. Will upvote any suggestions. – nkvp – 2013-10-03T17:02:56.080
