Stop Technicolor Router showing as media device/ server on network

Is there any way of doing this? I can't see a setting and would like the pesky thing not to show up on all of my clients.
Thanks

We've just been discussing that and my colleague Matt should be along shortly, he tells me we should be able to find this out Smiley

Hi,
If you log in via Telnet you can run these commands. I had to run the enable command first before disabling... (dont ask me why!)
:contentsharing upnpav config state enabled
:contentsharing upnpav config state disabled
If you have trouble then we can do this remotely for you if needs be.
Let me know how you get on.

Does this mean that by default, PN has admin access to all Technicolor Routers?

Superusers are not staff, but they do have a direct line of communication into the business in order to raise issues, concerns and feedback from the community.

Hi,
Yes we do with all the devices we ship to our customers, via a service known as TR-069.
We use this to auto configure the username and password into the router when they are first set up.
Wikipedia has a good overview here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TR-069

The router firmware update that I have recently had applied also seems to take care of this issue.

Re: Stop Technicolor Router showing as media device/ server on network

Well after the recent outage I was getting authentication problems so ran the setup wizard again on the router. Technicolour now shows up again as a media device.
Can you fix or provide updated firmware so it goes away again please?
Thanks
