The page includes the following fields:

Description

Enable:

Check or uncheck to enable or disable the WAN Access Control feature.

Port:

Enter a port ID for remote web-based management.

The default is 8080.

IP Address:

Enter the IP address of a PC on Internet authorized to access and
manage your router’s web-based utility remotely.

If you enter 0.0.0.0 in the IP address box, then all PCs on Internet can access your
router’s Web-based utility to view or change your settings remotely once you enable
the feature.

For example: If you want to allow only a PC at the IP address of 60.250.65.207 to access your router’s
Web-based utility from Internet via port: 8080, you need to configure same settings as shown on the interface
below on your router. And what this IP user needs to do is to simply launch a browser and enter http://
210.61.134.96:8080 (provided that your router’s WAN IP address is 210.61.134.96).
