The page includes the following fields:

Description

Web Management Port

Web browser access normally uses the standard HTTP service port

80. This Router's default remote management web port number is 80.

For greater security, 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 accessing 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.

Table 5-29

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 210.66.155.14, and the port

number used is 8080, please enter http://210.66.155.14:8080 in your browser. Later, you

may be asked for the Router's password. After successfully entering the username and

password, you will be able to access the Router's web-based utility.

Be sure to change the Router's default password to a very secure password.
