Great writeup in the tutorial albeit there are a couple of issues a newbie like myself is having troubling with. First off, I'm unclear how to, "open a command prompt in the directory where the script has been downloaded". And, just to be clear, the command prompt is utilizing the Python app or CMD? I tried both. The Windows CMD prompt gives the error: 'telnet-enable2.py' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file. The Python app gives the following error:
C:\Users\nemat\Downloads\telnet-enable2.py 192.168.1.1 [MyMACAddress] admin [MyRouterPW]
^
SyntaxError: unexpected character after line continuation character
What's the proper syntax?

Re: NBR750 Python errors
So, after reading up on python I was able to put in the telnet-enable2.py 192.168.1.1 [MyMACAddress] admin [RouterPW] and got:
PS C:\Users\nemat\Downloads> python

telnet-enable2.py 192.168.1.1 [MyMACAddress] admin [MyRouterPW]
^^^^^^^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
The arrows pointing to 192.168. show it as the invalid syntax. What needs to change?
