If this IP responds to ping, it could be used to test your immediate link. netgear-gateway Shows the IP address of the ISP's upstream gateway. netgear-filter-list Lists forbidden website domains, in the order in which they were added. HTTPS traffic, and non-Web traffic, is not affected (and neither is connecting to a non-VirtualHost website by IP), but it might help with some situations. Subdomains of the specified domains are also covered. The router blocks outgoing HTTP connections ( usually sending a "Web Site Blocked by Filter" response, but sometimes just dropping the connection) if any of these domains are mentioned in the request's "Host" header. netgear-filter-add (domain) Adds a domain to the forbidden websites list, if it's not already listed. netgear-dmz Sets the specified IP number (2 through 254) to receive all incoming traffic that is not handled by port forwarding 0 turns this off (off is recommended if you might have insecure open ports!) When run without a number, reports the current setting. If you do this via router configuration then the scripts don't need any special privileges on the server itself (apart from being able to read the router's password).

Also, the computer could change its IP address to an unblocked one (only 30 of them can be blocked), and if the computer has the router password then it can unblock itself as well. Existing connections are unaffected, and connections on the internal network are still allowed. Netgear-add-port (PortNum) (IpNum) Add a simple port-forwarding rule to forward incoming port PortNum (1 through 65535) to IpNum (1 through 254), replacing an existing rule if necessary (see netgear-delete-port) netgear-block (IpNum) Blocks the specified IP number (2 through 254) from making any new connections to the outside Internet. The scripts assume a LAN IP of 192.168.0.1. Unpack netgear.tgz into /usr/local/bin or wherever, and save the router's admin password into /etc/netgear-password (readable by any users that need to run the netgear commands). Installation: Make sure lynx is on the system. I've tested them on a VMDG280 router provided by Virgin Media I have no idea what (if any) other models they work on. These scripts allow a home router to be controlled programmatically from a Unix or Linux box.
For modern UPnP-based routers, try UPnP command-line control scripts instead. These scripts are old: I understand that the firmware of the router in question might have changed since I last had access to one, so I have no idea how many of these scripts still work.
