Wireless-G Router for Mobile Broadband

The Administration Tab - Management

This section of the Administration tab allows the network’s administrator to manage specific Router functions for access and security.

Router Password

Local Router Access

Router Password and Re-enter to confirm. You can change the Router’s password from here. Enter a new Router password and then type it again in the Re-enter to confirm field to confirm.

Web Access

Access Server. HTTP (HyperText Transport Protocol) is the communications protocol used to connect to servers on the World Wide Web. HTTPS is a similar protocol, but it uses SSL (Secured Socket Layer) to encrypt transmitted data, so security is increased. Select the protocol you want to use, HTTP or HTTPS.

Wireless Access Web. 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 Web-based Utility via a wired connection if you disable the setting. Select Enable to enable wireless access to the Router’s Web-based Utility or Disable to disable wireless access to the Utility.

Remote Router Access

Remote Management and Management Port. To access the Router remotely, from outside the network, verify that Enable is selected. Then, enter the port number that will be open to outside access. You will need to enter the Router’s password when accessing the Router this way, as usual.

Use https. If you want to require the use of SSL (Secured Socket Layer) to encrypt transmitted data, click the checkbox.

UPnP

UPnP. When using UPnP features, select Enable. Because allowing this may present a risk to security, this feature is disabled by default.

Change these settings as described here, and click the Save Settings button to apply your changes or Cancel Changes to cancel your changes.
