Comment(by hellais):

 I would like to know what the exact requirements for this web interface
 should be. What I deduce would be necessary is:

 main page:
   The main page contains an overview of the current status of the Tor
 router. Status if it is connected properly to Tor or not, and general
 information on the current status of the network. If it is the first time
 that the user connects to the Torouter then it loads the wizard.

 wizard:
   Guides the user through the steps of configuring the Torouter. @runa,
 @jake you would need to tell me exactly what the steps required should be.
 An example would be
    step 1: The user is asked how he will connect to the internet. He
 chooses DHCP or static or whatever.
    step 2: The user is asked how to configure his wifi network. ESSID,
 channel, etc.
    step 3: He is asked how to configure Tor.
   .. and so on. As I said I am not sure how you envisioned this. What are
 your ideas?

 status:
   A detailed status page, containing more info than the main page. [insert
 specs for "detailed information" here]

 config:
   The advanced configuration interface. A good value for
 customizability/not_breakability should be found. By this I mean what kind
 of users are Torouter users? A good compromise between what they can do
 and what they can't do to avoid breaking stuff should be found [insert
 specs for what should be customizable]

 Is there anything else?
