I¹m trying to use CURL to access a Motorola VT-1000 which is in front of my
network, acting as a light NAT router (and providing Vonage phone service).
I¹d like to query the router for the current WAN address for dynamic IP
updating. The data is there as presented when accessed by any web-browser
at.

I¹m thinking I could develop a simple shell script for the Linux server to
run as a cron-job to check and compare the current WAN IP to a local copy
and when it has changed issue a WGET to the dynamic hosting site to update
my new WAN IP.

When I do a curl ­v http://192.168.101 I get this back:

* About to connect() to 192.168.102.1 port 80
* Trying 192.168.102.1... * connected

I¹ve searched all around and can find no options on how either over-ride the
transfer-encoding or tell CURL to to use it.
Can this even be done?
