    Pulse only eats up a 'shitload' of CPU if you have it set up to resample (hint... use your card's native rate and don't resample)... especially if you use a CPU intensive resample algorithm.

    dd-wrt doesn't allow admin from WAN either, unless you tell it to.

    If you really need to access the router from the outside then forward a port (like SSH) to a secure machine on the inside and then connect to the router from that machine.

    And if that's not an option, because you need to fiddle with NAT? Or the hardware is not responding for some reason (that's unimportant to my point)?
