Web Management Port - Web browser normally uses the standard HTTP port 80 for
access. This router’s default remote management web port number is 80. For greater se-
curity, you can change the remote management web port to a custom port by entering that
number in the box provided. Choose a number between 1 and 65534, but do not use the
number of any common service port.
Remote Management IP Address - This is the current address you will use when access-
ing your router from the Internet. This function is disabled when the IP address is set to the
default value of 0.0.0.0. To enable this function change 0.0.0.0 to a valid IP address. If set
to 255.255.255.255, then all the hosts can access the router from internet.
Note:
By default, the radio button “All the PCs on the LAN are allowed to access the router’s
Web-Based Utility” is checked. If you want to allow PCs with specific MAC Addresses to ac-
cess the Setup page of the router’s Web-Based Utility locally from inside the network, check
the radio button “Only the PCs listed can browse the built-in web pages to perform Adminis-
trator tasks”, and then enter each MAC Address in a separate field. The format for the MAC
Address is XX-XX-XX-XX-XX-XX (where X is any hexadecimal digit). Only the PCs with a MAC
address listed can use the password to browse the built-in web pages to perform Administra-
tor tasks while all the others will be blocked.
After clicking the Add button, your PC’s MAC Address will be placed in the above list.
Click the Save button to store your settings.
Note: If your PC is blocked but you want to access the router again, use a pin to press and
hold the Reset Button (hole) on the back panel for about 5 seconds, to reset the router to its
factory default values on the Web-Based Utility.
Go to Security Remote Management in the menu, in order to configure the Remote Man-
agement feature, as shown in the screen below (Figure 9-5). This feature allows you to man-
age your router from a remote location via the Internet.

To access the router, you should type your Router’s WAN IP address into your browser’s
address (in IE) or Location (in Navigator) box, followed by a colon and the custom port
number. For example, if your Router’s WAN address is 202.96.12.8, and the port number
used is 8080, please enter http://202.96.12.8:8080 in your browser. Later, you may be
asked to type the router’s password. After successfully entering the username and pass-
word, you will be able to access the router’s web-based utility.
Be sure to change the router’s default password to a more secure password.
