I have a raspberry pi plugged into my router at home, running raspbian. Before I left for work I:

  • Configured the router to forward ports 80 and 22 to the pi
  • Configured dyndns

This all works, and I can access the pi using http and ssh. The problem is, I forgot to forward another port that I want to use! What I want to do is connect from the pi to my home router's web interface to forward the other port. The router interface is awful: heavy and graphical, and uses javascript. What should I do?

  • try `lynx` or use ssh proxy forward. – Kiwy Jan 27 '14 at 10:42

Setting up an SSH tunnel worked just fine. From work:

ssh -L 8080:192.168.1.254:80 <pi>

Then connecting to localhost:8080 from my browser.
