Remotely hack into my own router?

Post by belbo »

This is a long shot.

I am overseas on holiday. One of my home machines seems to have shut itself down for some reason. I would like to access my router to try and restart the machine with wake on lan.

Unfortunately I'm not sure and don't think I have set up any sort of remote access admin rights on my router (are there any set by default?). I have gargoyle running on a linksys wrt54gl.

I know my external ip address and router login and password.

Is there any way I can get into the router, preferably access the gui and then try restarting my machine with wol?

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks

Remote access is not enabled by default.
