ThanksYou're pointing it at the wrong port then - telnet runs on port 23, not on port 80.

Either you're trying to telnet to port 80, or your router doesn't support telnet - either way, whatever address / port you're trying to access is speaking HTTP.

Are you sure your router even has a user-accessible CLI interface?
