Due to many ppl pm me to ask for the access into HG850a, here is it..
If you're using Maxis FTTH, this setup will enable you to plug the telephone into the HG850a, use custom router and you can put your Thompson router into store room or maybe rubbish bin.

You can go straight to the end of this post to see the final outcome.
Do it at your own risk.
Preparation1. Download & install autohotkey
http://l.autohotkey.net/AutoHotkey_L_Install.exe2. After finish install autohotkey, launch it and right click on the AutoHotkey icon at the right corner taskbar, click on "edit this script", a notepad will open. Change the content to following:
CODE
^!z::
Send enable{Enter}configure terminal{Enter}shell{Enter}iptables --flush{Enter}
return
^!x::
Send iptables --flush{Enter}iptables --flush{Enter}iptables --flush{Enter}iptables --flush{Enter}
return
3. save it and close the notepad, right click the AutoHotkey icon again and click "reload this script"
4. download putty

4. Switch on ur HG850a and check the continuous ping
5. Once you saw you're getting Reply from 192.168.100.1.. IMMEDIATELY click "Open" in the putty client.
6. You're now successfully telnet into the HG850a but dont be happy, your access will soon be block once the HG850a finish loading the iptables, so you need to perform the following steps quick and accurate.
7. login by
username: root
password: admin
8. press the hotkey [ ctrl + alt + z ] , wait for the command to finish typing,
then immediately repeat pressing [ctrl + alt + x], let the command finish typing between the interval.This is the Hotkey that we configure into the AutoHotkey previously. This is to let the AutoHotkey help us to type the command in a very short time, before the iptables kicks in and repeatedly wipe the iptables.
9. After around 10 seconds, if you still get response from the telnet, then you're safe for now.. but not permanent, if u power off and power on your HG850a, you will need to do from step 1 again.
Configure to have permanent access and no need to hassle so much, perform the following:
Web Interface1. Open your browser, go into
http://192.168.100.12. Login with admin account:
Username: telecomadmin
Password: hs5711Bbfh
3. go to 'maintain' > 'device' > 'configure file' > 'Download Configuration File' to backup the config.

5. open the 'downloadconfigfile.conf' using notepad
6. ctrl+f to find
CODE
<AclServices HTTPLanEnable
7. change that line to
CODE
<AclServices HTTPLanEnable="1" HTTPWanEnable="0" TELNETLanEnable="1" TELNETWanEnable="0" FTPLanEnable="0" FTPWanEnable="0" SSHLanEnable="0" SSHWanEnable="0"/>
8. save it and go to the HG850a web interface, go to 'maintain' > 'device' > 'configure file' > 'choose file' > select this modified config > 'Upload Configuration File'
9. After finish restore, power off and on the HG850a, you should now able to access the web interface and telnet even after power cycle.

Setup custom router [Maxis]Im using DDWRT but this is not limited to it. As long as the router you're using support vlan, it should working fine.
eg: Mikrotik, OpenWRT, etc..
1. Plug LAN cable from HG850a LAN port 2 to WAN port of your custom router. {not sure if other port also working, I didn't try it}
2. Refer:
http://unifi.athena.my/ddwrt_guide.php3. I'm using DIR825 by default the 'WAN Port assignment' is eth1, thats why I tag on 'eth1' instead of 'vlan2' shown by
