    "send request to livebox SubmitInternetService."
    action = 'http://%s/SubmitInternetService' % host
    req = urllib2.Request(action, urllib.urlencode(data))
    passwd = base64.b64encode('%s:%s' % ('admin', passwd))
    req.add_header('Authorization',  'Basic %s' % passwd)
    request = urllib2.urlopen(req)
    return request.read()

def disconnect(host, passwd):
    "disconnect from internet."

You can use this functions like this.
<pre>if __name__ == '__main__':
    from sys import argv
    opts, rest = getopt(argv[1:], 'p:h:')
    opts = dict(opts)
    if len(rest) == 0:
        passwd = opts.get('-p', 'admin')
        host = opts.get('-h', '192.168.1.1')
        try:
            disconnect(host, passwd)
            connect(host, passwd)
        except urllib2.HTTPError, e:
            if e.code == 401:
                print 'wrong password'
            else:
                print 'Error: %s' % e.args
            exit(1)
        except urllib2.URLError, e:
            print 'Error: %s' % ' '.join(e.args)
        else:
            print "password successfuly changed"

You could use this progam like this:

change_ip.py -h <your host> -p <your password>

Default host is 192.168.1.1 and default password is admin
