          I tried post with this parms:
          ("usernamefld", "admin")
          ("passwordfld", "xxxxx")
          ("action", "/index.php")
          ("method", "post")
          but without any luck… Its there anything elese that i must post for successful login? Or better, show me batch for curl that can do this?

            I've done this using wget, I use the data from ifstats.php to determine if the network is idle before starting automated large downloads (remote backups)

            Just modify the last three wget's with the location of the rrds you want.

            #!/bin/bash
wget -qO/dev/null --keep-session-cookies --save-cookies /tmp/cookies.txt --post-data 'login=Login&passwordfld=YOURPASSWORD&usernamefld=admin' http://172.16.10.1/index.php
wget -qO- --keep-session-cookies --load-cookies /tmp/cookies.txt http://172.16.10.1/ifstats.php?if=wan
wget -qO- --keep-session-cookies --load-cookies /tmp/cookies.txt http://172.16.10.1/ifstats.php?if=lan
wget -qO- --keep-session-cookies --load-cookies /tmp/cookies.txt http://172.16.10.1/ifstats.php?if=opt1

              I added a variation of this method here:
