Using the Configuration Menu (continued)

Tools > Admin

Remote Management:

Remote Management allows the DI-704UP to be configured from the Internet by a web

browser. A username and password is still required to access the Web-Management

interface. In general, only a member of your network can browse the built-in web pages

to perform “Administrator” tasks. This feature enables you to perform “Administrator”

tasks from the remote (Internet) host.

IP Address:

Internet IP address of the computer that has access to the Broadband Router. It is not

recommended that you set the IP address to 0.0.0.0, because this allows any Internet

IP address to access the Broadband Router, which could result in a loss of security

for your network. If you elect to Enable Remote Management, enter the IP Address of

your remote location.

Port:

Select the port number used to access the Broadband Router.

Example:

http://x.x.x.x:8080

whereas x.x.x.x is the WAN IP address of the Broadband

Router and 8080 is the port used for the Web-Management interface.

Tools > Time

The system time is the time used by the DI-704UP for scheduling services. You can

manually set the time or connect to a NTP (Network Time Protocol) server. If an NTP

server is set, you will only need to set the time zone.
