hello,
i just noticed a strange thing.
my password has a “$” sign in it.
when i try to use the SSH and run the Bandwidth Test I am not allowed to use the $ sign when typing the password.
how can it be used?
error given is “expected end of command”

Try ‘escaping’ it by putting a '' in front of it, so if your password was:
dollar$
try
dollar$
or try encapsulating it inside quotes
“dollar$”
will try escaping it…
quotes did not work
no luck with the escaping either ![]()
how can this be overcome?
Did you try escaping and quotes together?
I have a config build script that creates a ‘backup’ admin account with a dollar in the password. This works fine:
/user add name=abc group=full password="dollar\$"
Maybe it’s a specific issue with the bw test command.
