Much appreciated mate thanks for that I may just give that a shot although I would prefer wireless, referring to ssh winscp and putty are you telling me the following:

If I need to manage files I should use winscp

If I want to change my default password and username I should also install an extra program putty as I cannot change This with winscp

P.s have a read at my FaceTime post on ipad3 forum see if you can enlighten me on that bud ;-)

I don't know how to use PuTTY, which is why I suggested you use i-FunBox. So, I can't help you with that if the instructions aren't clear...

There is another option: You could go to Cydia and install Mobile Terminal. This will allow you to input the commands I listed in the posts above once you launch it.

Again and yes, as a general rule, it's WinSCP for files management and PuTTY for commands.

You really should learn more about SSH on iPad before attempting using it as you can really do things on the iPad with it that only a full restore would fix.
