There are two ways actually for me. One is to use the software interface which is packaged with ur routers (or even print servers).
U accessed it mainly by web browsers.

Another way is to use telnet. To connect to a router for example with an ip : 192.168.1.1

Just type at command prompt

----> telnet 192.168.1.1
Then press enter.

For the web browser just type the ip address and go for it.
