How to Shutdown a router remotely

Discussion
#1

I have Just Installed a wifi Repeater in my Bed room, to extend the wifi. The router is installed in my Living Room. I can switch off the wifi Repeater (in my bed room) as it is where I work late night. I don’t want to go our of my bedroom into living room to power off the modem. Anyway to get the desired result?

My Router :: Dlink dir 600m
My wifi repeater :: Netgear WN3000RP-200PES Universal Wifi Range Extender

@Avi,
If the manufacturer has not provided a specific utility to turn off the router remotely, then you can’t. Best solution I can think of is replacing your DLink router with a Linux box :).
