Is there a Genius somewhere for this ?
thanks

I am sorry I was meaning with a pc (without any physical action, i.e. presssure of the reset button on the router itself).
I would like to program sthg that detects that the router is gone, and send a command to it to reset it automatically.

The only thing I could think of outside of possibly the web interface, would be through telnet, but I don't believe Netgear releases the necessary information to make that possible.

These are not managed devices, you need physical access.

Please help, this NETGEAR is daily getting crap, and needs to be reset physically.

If the firefox can enter after login / password, and then, click on reset, is there any way to reset router with wget and .wget/cookies... ?

(What a crap when your router is leaving you away)
please help
