The order isn't important as long as the new line is before the next section heading (Lines like "[SomethingOrOther]").

With that in place, the device should connect automatically.
Oh nice, youll have to hold my hand for a bit as i havent used telnet for very long time and have basic understanding of it. The device got detected and i logged in with user root and no password. Cd to the folder where the config is , but dont know the command to open the file for editing. Can you point me in the right direction?

Edit: Im using PuTTY, in case that makes any difference
