remote IP of WRT54G

Archived from groups: alt.internet.wireless (More info?)

I need some way of getting the external IP of my Linksys WRT54G so I can
track when it changes (DHCP).

I was playing with 'telnet 192.168.1.1 80' to see if I could do it by
accessing the webserver but now 'connection refused'. I think the
internal webserver crashed because I can't access the admin page with a
browser on another computer.

Thanks for the link but I need to automate the process and get the number.
