Step 4, the reboot button I the GUI. I need to find the URL (may have to pass router credentials) that accesses this button. The Router is an EA8500.

That link seems to be for a cloud managed solution to your router. As it doesn't seem to be a local connection I don't think that a cl option is possible?

Now I'm curious if this is possible too.

Could consider either the wget or curl apps - pass the full URL...

Might have to jump into Wireshark on a PC with a browser to capture the flow, but it seems doable...

This is infact a local router tab. Maybe not the example I listed off the web, but it looks the exact same as in that page. I am getting to the router by the local IP.

I tried enabling the status bar in IE to see what happens when I hover over the Reboot button, but nothing shows up.

Side note: I can use the PowerShell invoke-webrequest http://192.168.100.1/reset.htm?reset_modem=Restart+Cable+Modem to reset my Moto SB6121.

Linksys SmartWiFi does allow for both local access, as well as the cloud...
