I have a linksys routter as well. I was wondering if there is any telnet
interface to those things, or is it only their html interface?

Thanks,
Sina

You can configure those routres both in Linux and in windblows. The
router does have a web-based configuration which you can access by going
to http://192.168.1.1. The default username is admin and the same goes
for the password. There are some config pages that use some scripting,
but on the whole you should be fine configuring it from Linux. As to
which machine to use, it really doesn't matter. Hope this helps.
