Batch file to turn on N66U openvpn client.

[Deleted member 27741]

Although it is useful, I do not always want the N66U's openvpn client turned on. Logging into the router to turn it on/off seems cumbersome. Is there a way to set up a batch file (windows) to turn on/off the openvpn client on the N66U?

Having one batch file that would detect the current state and then switch it would be coolest, but two batch files (one for on and off) would be great too.

Ok, I have this figured out. A batch file can be created to run
putty.exe username@serverlocation -pw password -m filewithcommands.txt

My batch file looks like this, keep in mind my putty installation is at d:\putty, so you may need to modify according to the location of your putty installation:

d:
cd putty
putty.exe yourusername@yourserverlocationIusemyddns -pw yourpassword -m c:\your\location\textfilewithcommands.txt

Note there is no carriage return after -m above, it is all on the same line.
Command for the file to start the vpn client 1 is:
service start_vpnclient1
To stop:
service stop_vpnclient1
