The ADMINISTRATION Tab- MANAGEMENT

When you click the Administration tab, you can select the MANAGEMENT screen. This screen allows you to change the Router’s access settings and configure the UPnP (Universal Plug and Play) features. You can also back up and restore the Router’s configuration file.

Local Router Access

To ensure the Router’s security, you will be asked for your password when you access the Router’s Web-based Utility. The default password is admin.

Router Password and Re-enter to Confirm. It is recommended that you change the default password to one of your choice. Enter a new Router password and then enter it again in the Re-enter to Confirm field.

HTTPS Web Access

HTTPS Access Server. If you are using the Router in a public domain where you are giving wireless access to your guests, you can disable wireless access to the Router’s Web-based Utility. You will only be able to access the Utility via a wired connection if you disable the setting. Select Enabled to allow wireless access to the Utility, or select Disabled to block wireless access to the Utility.

Remote Router Access

Remote Management. To permit remote access of the Router, from outside the local network, select Enabled. Otherwise, keep the default setting, Disabled. NOTE: You must change the default password (admin) to enable this feature.

Management Port. Enter the port number that will be open to outside access.

Use HTTPS. HTTP (HyperText Transport Protocol) is the communications protocol used to connect to servers on the World Wide Web. HTTPS uses SSL (Secured Socket Layer) to encrypt data transmitted for higher security. For more security when using the remote router, click on HTTPS.

UPnP

Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) allows Windows Me and XP to automatically configure the Router for various Internet applications, such as gaming and videoconferencing.

UPnP. If you want to use UPnP, keep the default setting, Enabled. Otherwise, select Disabled.
