Not able to telnet to cisco 1921 router

[stephenp85]

Hi guys.

I have a problem where I am not able to telnet into my route

Both my laptop and router are connected to the same switch.

I am able to telnet into my switch but not to my router.

Whenever I try to open a telnet session I get a message stating that the connection has been refused.

I've attached the config of my router to this post.

Hope some one is able to help me out.

make sure you created a username and password and enable transport telnet

line vty 0 4
transport input telnet  ( telnet is not advised , sugested is SSH)

Hi @stephenp85 

line vty 0 4
 password cisco
 login
 transport input none <-- This line prevents connections to the vty lines.

Try changes:

line vty 0 4

no transport input none

Or if you want to allow only telnet

line vty 0 4

transport input telnet

Regards
