[ILUG] Accessing UPC Modem via elinks

[Steven Kavanagh]

That's pretty much what I've done with mine.

After much tinkering late last night and having a sleep deprived brain I
tried to fix some issues on the router last night, specifically it running
out of RAM and restarting itself.

Better enable a Swap drive, right?

Yeah... except for some reason in my sleep deprived state I thought that
this would just create a swap file on the partition and not repartition the
entire drive as swap space.

Bye bye backuped up data. Bye bye downloads.

That's over 400gb of data that I've just wiped so all of this so far has
been for nothing.

Another reason I can't put my router into bridge mode is that the telephone
service doesn't work without it, even though the functionality itself has
been disabled.

Cheers for the suggestions though.
