router question (fwd)

[White, Matt]

I have  not come across a Linksys router that has a telnet interface.  I
had a Cisco and a Netgear that did have telnet interfaces though.

I bet there is a way to telnet/ssh into one of the Linksys WRT54g's though
since it runs Linux 2.4.5 with some modifications.  There is a group that
is hacking these to make a Wifi mesh.
