How to control a TPLINK router with a python script
I wanted to know whether there is a tool that allows me to connect to a router and shut it down, and then reboot it from a python script.
I know that if I write in a python script: import os
and then do os.system("ssh -l root 192.168.2.1")
, I can connect through python to my router. But then, I don't know how to apply the router's password, and to log into it, in order to reboot it.
So after working on it a bit here is the code that I have written in order to connect to my router with an SSH session using a python script:
import os, urllib, urllib2, re
def InterfaceControl():
#os.system("echo training")
os.system("ssh -l root 192.168.2.1")
os.system("echo yes")
os.system("echo My_ROUTER_PASSWORD")
os.system("shutdown -r")
def main():
InterfaceControl()
if __name__=="__main__":
main()
The problem is that I still can not connect to my router with this code, and moreover, IDLE (the editor I use to write and run python script) crashes. Can anyone help me improve this code?

Good day.
Sorry for the delay.
May I know the model number of your wireless router?
You could try to use the Tether APP or router’s web interface to manage the APP.
As for the python script, I am really sorry that we are not able to provide more details about it.
Thank you very much for your understanding and support.

I relies upon your tp link model and firmware.

You can control Tp-Link with scripts easily as It works on here, you use it too.
