How can I re-enable the web interface of a dd-wrt router with no SSH or telnet connection?

Question

I accidentally disabled my D-link router's web interface. I installed dd-wrt firmware on it. The router's SSH and telnet connections are disabled. I don't want to reset the router.

How can I enable the web interface?

I recommend following these steps in the future: http://www.dd-wrt.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=29181

nvram set httpd_enable=1
nvram set http_enable=1
nvram commit

You can just reboot or start httpd from the command line:

httpd -p 80

I followed them and got mine to work.

SSH and then:

nvram set remote_management=1
nvram set http_wanport=8080 
nvram set httpsd_enable=1 
nvram set https_enable=1
nvram set remote_mgt_https=1 
nvram commit 
reboot

Then connect:

https://wanIP:8080/

Keep in mind,there are protocols (http and https) that router used to display its web-based interface.

You can soft-reset the router - i.e., keep the "reset" button pressed for 30 seconds. This will bring back most of the router's settings to its defualt.
