I accidentally disabled the web interface for my DD-WRT router, but I can still SSH in. How can I fix it so I can admin with the GUI again?

I though I was disabling the remote access, but it was local :) – Matt Williamson Jul 26 '10 at 02:51

From the dd-wrt wiki:
If for some reason you completely lost web access to the router, the web server (HTTP daemon) may be shut down. To regain access try starting the web server. SSH or telnet into the router and enter the following commands:
httpd -h /www
This forum thread gives all to gory details about enabling/disabling the web interface.

You can try restarting the HTTP daemon since you can still SSH in. If that doesn't work, you may have to resort to a full reset/reboot.

1Ah nice. A reboot didn't work because it was diabled in the nvram. httpd -h /www worked perfectly. Thank you! – Matt Williamson Jul 26 '10 at 02:50

It's a quite old question.
You can simply restart the HTTP daemon with:
startservice httpd
