Well, as you may or may not know, the DG834 is based on a lot of open-source software, including a routing daemon called Zebra (http://www.zebra.org/).

So here's a fun trick or two:

Enable Debugging mode by visiting your router's IP with a special URL:

http://0.0.0.0/setup.cgi?todo=debug

Next, fire up PuTTY, or the Telnet client of your choice, and telnet to your router. You'll find BusyBox and a few select commands.

But here's the fun part!

Telnet to the router again, only on port 2601 instead the default.

If you've used a Cisco router before, you'll find the results strangely familiar :)
