Enabling Remote Management Access
Using the Remote Management feature, you can allow a user on the Internet to configure,
upgrade, and check the status of your wireless router. Select Remote Management under
Advanced in the main menu.
The Remote Management screen displays.
Note: Be sure to change the router’s default configuration password to a
very secure password. The ideal password should contain no
dictionary words from any language, and should be a mixture of
letters (both uppercase and lowercase), numbers, and symbols.
Your password can be up to 30 characters.
To configure your router for remote management:
1. Select the Turn Remote Management On check box.
2. Under Allow Remote Access By, specify what external IP addresses will be allowed to
access the router’s remote management.
Note: For enhanced security, restrict access to as few external IP
addresses as practical.
