using wget to submit a form on linksys router

I'm trying to use wget to submit a form. I have tried to dig out what is actually being "posted" and where, using tamperdata (see below).

Here is my wget command:
Code:
wget --http-user=xyz --http-password=xyz --post-data='submit_button=Filters&change_action=&submit_type=save&action=Apply&blocked_service=&filter_web=&filter_policy=&f_status=0&services_array=53%3A53%3A17%3ADNS%28%26nbsp%3B%290%3A0%3A1%3APing%28%26nbsp%3B%29443%3A443%3A6%3AHTTPS%28%26nbsp%3B%2921%3A21%3A6%3AFTP%28%26nbsp%3B%29110%3A110%3A6%3APOP3%28%26nbsp%3B%29143%3A143%3A6%3AIMAP%28%26nbsp%3B%2925%3A25%3A6%3ASMTP%28%26nbsp%3B%29119%3A119%3A6%3ANNTP%28%26nbsp%3B%2923%3A23%3A6%3ATelnet%28%26nbsp%3B%29161%3A161%3A17%3ASNMP%28%26nbsp%3B%2969%3A69%3A17%3ATFTP%28%26nbsp%3B%29500%3A500%3A17%3AIKE%28%26nbsp%3B%2980%3A80%3A6%3AHTTP%28%26nbsp%3B%29&services_length=13&service_applist=&blocked_service0=&blocked_service1=&blocked_service2=&blocked_service3=&blocked_service4=&blocked_service5=&blocked_service6=&blocked_service7=&blocked_service8=&blocked_service9=&wait_time=3&start=&f_id=1&f_name=faceboook&f_status1=disable&f_status2=allow&day_all=1&time_all=1&host0=www.facebook.com&host1=&host2=&host3=&url0=facebook&url1=&url3=&url4=&Add_Service_Name=&Add_Service_Port_S=0&Add_Service_Port_E=0&Add_Service_Protocol=23&end=' http://10.0.0.1/Filters.asp

Ive tried a couple different variations of the command, but I think I'm using the wrong syntax. I'm not even sure if i'm on the right track with the "postdata" i'm using.

Ok, I think ive figured it out. I just need to clean it up a bit so it doesn't DL temp files, but here's basically what I did:
This example used to enable/disable a filter on my linksys router:
use "tamper-data" plugin in firefox to get the information that is actually being submitted and where. Take the URL form the top window (not the "referrer URL from the "request header" window). Use that URL in the following command:
wget --http-user=<user> --http-password=<password> --post-file=<file containing the "POSTDATA"> http://10.0.0.1/apply.cgi
The post-file should contain only the data taken from the "request header value" (ie everything AFTER the "POSTDATA=" if you copy it out of tamper-data...which in this case begins with "submit_button...")
