Fritzbox – remote administration

In order to access the administration webpage of my fritzbox an SSH tunnel is currently my first choice. The usage of a proxy is not working at the moment for several reasons.
To establish the tunnel just use:
ssh -L ::80 -l

e.g.: ssh -L 8080:fritz.box:80 -l username tunnelserver

or the tunnel settings in putty:
Unbenannt

Now only the proxy settings in your browser must be switched to localhost and your done.
Alternatively you could configure a dedicated profile for your browser, e.g.
firefox.exe -ProfileManager

firefox.exe -p
