Oh ok, I was just wondering. I am fine with the html interface, but I
have always seen telnet and ssh interfaces for cisco routters and
others.

Thanks for the information,
Sina

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.
