You can manage this router remotely by enabling the ‘Remote Management’ function.
Parameters | Description |
Host Address | Input the IP address of the remote host you wish to initiate a |
| management access. “0.0.0.0” means any remote IP address. If you |
| specify an IP address here, then the router will only allow remote access |
| from this specific IP address. |

| request. If you’re providing a web service (default port number is 80), you |
| should try to use other port number. You can use the default port setting |
| “8080”, or something like “32245” or “1429”. (Any integer between 1 and |
| 65534) |
Enabled | Select the field to start the configuration |
