It looks to me (though I could be wrong, I'm using slackware to test) like
you can just delete resolv.conf and make sure named isn't running.  I
suppose that brings down all DNS services, but why do you want to be able
to telnet out of your router?

FWIW- I can ssh into my router, but there's no ssh or identity on it, just
sshd. (And unfortunately that means I can't scp to or from it.)
