If you can ssh into your box, you can probably also do ssh -ND 3333 me@xxxxxxxxxxx and then Edit -> Preferences -> Advanced -> Network -> (Connection) Settings -> Manual proxy configuration HTTP Proxy: localhost Port: 3333 in Firefox. (There's nothing special about port no. 3333.) After this, all FF requests will (seem to) originate from your home box. Of course, if you're sitting at a machine with X on it, you can also just use the FF on your home box. Something else you can perhaps do: I don't know about your router, but mine (Linksys WRT54GL) also can't be accessed without a JavaScript enabled browser. But, on closer inspection, it turned out that the JS is only there to scare you; by looking at what it did, it was easy to write a script that can be used to control the router from the commandline.
