// Add the Credentials for login

routerConnectionObj.Credentials = new NetworkCredential("userName", password);

// Type of method Get/ Post

routerConnectionObj.Method = "Post";
string postContent = "connect=+Renew+&refreshScrn=yes";

// Content type may be text or encoded

routerConnectionObj.ContentType = "application/x-www-form-urlencoded";

routerConnectionObj.ContentLength = postContent.Length;

// Get the requested stream and add postContent data

StreamWriter myWriter = new StreamWriter(routerConnectionObj.GetRequestStream());

myWriter.Write(postContent);

myWriter.Close();

//get the response from server

HttpWebResponse responseObj = (HttpWebResponse)routerConnectionObj.GetResponse();

HttpStatusCode statusCode = responseObj.StatusCode;

There aren't any APIs out there to do this, but you can write something to make HTTP requests to the router to simulate the webUI being used.
I'm guessing most consumer routers are probably pretty simple to talk to. Authentication is probably nothing more than basic realm.
