Enabling Remote Management Access
Using the Remote Management page, you can allow a user or users on the Internet to configure,
upgrade and check the status of your CG814WG Gateway.
To configure your gateway for Remote Management:
1. Select the Allow Remote Management check box.
2. Specify what the Remote User Name and Remote Password that will be required to remotely
access your CG814WG.
3. Specify the Port Number that will be used for accessing the management interface.
Web browser access normally uses the standard HTTP service port 80. For greater security,
you can change the remote management web interface to a custom port by entering that
number in the box provided. Choose a number between 1024 and 65535, but do not use the
number of any common service port. The default is 8080, which is a common alternate for
HTTP.
4. Click Apply to have your changes take effect.
5. When accessing your router from the Internet, type your router's WAN IP address into your
browser, followed by a colon (:) and the port number. For example, if your WAN IP address is
134.177.0.123 and you use port number 8080, type the following in your browser:
http://134.177.0.123:8080
