Internet Protocol Tab
Please check with Sprint to determine if these settings are required. If you are unsure of the settings, leave the
default values set and click
Apply .
If Sprint has instructed you to change any of these settings, be sure to click Apply when you are finished.
Firewall Tab
A firewall helps to protect your home network from unauthorized access. It will also help to manage
authorized access from the Internet to your modem.
The Enable Web Login from Internet and the Enable Ping from Internet options are by default turned off. This is
because these options allow unknown users to access your computer via the internet, and this is not safe.
You may need to turn these options on if there is a problem with your modem or Internet connection. Turning
these options on will allow Sprint access to your computer to troubleshoot any problems. Remember to enter
the number of the port that is allowed to access your computer if these options are turned on.
Be sure to click Apply once you are finished.
