https://forum.dd-wrt.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?p=1169279#1169279

with this telnet command

curl -k -X GET https://forum.dd-wrt.com/phpBB2/download.php?id=36611 -o /tmp/cfe8500.bin

if i dont have an internet connection at the time how would i change the command if it have the cfe8500.bin file locally?

for example if i had it in c:\users\myusername\desktop\cfe8500.bin

Enable ssh on DD-WRT and use scp via WinSCP or comparable client software from your PC.

Router IP address for hostname; port shouldn't necessarily matter, since it should use port 22, same as ssh.
