You can make the router only accessible via https, at least I can on
my Linksys though I am not sure if that would fix the issue in
question.
Mine doesn't appear to listen on anything other than port 80. I settled
for turning off wireless, then configuring things, then turning it back
on using WPA2 only.
There is some OPen WRT firmware for the linksys that I have been
dying
to try though........
I had a look on the site for that, mine's only "partially supported".
