Hello! 

I would like to use lynx to manage my local small lan router.  I can
manage a broadband modem that way.  But the router webpage expects to be
managed by a graphical browser, so the initial control webpage just
shows up as unintelligible garbage.  

Since I run command line only, I do not want to activate X, install a
graphical browser, and run X, with all the overhead and security issues,
just to manage a simple router.  Is there another way text-only way to
accomplish this (ie, ssh etc.)? 

Thanks for any advice.
