VPN Pass Through
Selecting VPN Pass Through in the “Advanced Configuration” screen generates
the “ VPN Pass Through” screen. To set up Virtual Private Networking ( VPN ) using
IPS ec/ L 2 TP (which allows multiple, client-initiated VPN pass-through sessions),
select On. Note that VPN via PPTP pass through is always active.
Remote Management
Selecting Remote Management in the “Advanced Configuration” screen generates
the “Remote Management” screen. Remote Management allows access to the
Router through the Internet via another computer. Actiontec recommends leaving
the Remote Management Off (the factory default setting).
To access the Router from the Internet, activate Remote Management by selecting
On and writing down the
WAN IP address of the Router (see “ WAN IP Address”).
On a computer outside of the network, open a Web browser and enter the Router’s
WAN IP address in the address text box. The Router’s Main Menu (or a password
prompt, if a password has been set) appears in the browser window.

Note: Before Remote Management can be activated, the admin-
istrator password must be set. To do this, go to the Basic Setup
screen and select Change Admin Password. Follow the instruc-
tions in the subsequent screens
