Setting parameters with unknow index

[Marco Marino]

Hi Dan, thank you for your support but at the moment I'm a bit confused and
my test doesn't work and this is frustrating.
The firmware provides one PTM interface and one ETH interface. Furthermore,
there is one WAN service for PTM and another for ETH using PPPoE. Basically
both WAN services have the same PPPoE credentials (test, test) and after
the first authentication, the CPE is able to query the tr069 server and
download new credentials.
Actually I'm doing one stupid test: I edit

InternetGatewayDevice.WANDevice.3.WANConnectionDevice.1.WANPPPConnection.1.Username
= testuser
InternetGatewayDevice.WANDevice.3.WANConnectionDevice.1.WANPPPConnection.1.Password
= testpassword

using the web interface of genieacs. The problem is that this doesn't work!
If I insert the same credentials using the web GUI of the router it works
but when I try with genieacs the CPE loses the connection (I'm checking
this using a laptop connected to the LAN of the router)
Please, let me know where I'm wrong!
Thank you
