Using the Web-Based Advanced User Interface
Enabling Remote Management
Before you enable this advanced feature of your Ativa Router, MAKE SURE
YOU HAVE SET THE ADMINISTRATOR PASSWORD. Remote management
allows you to make changes to your Router’s settings from anywhere on the
Internet. There are two methods of remotely managing the Router. The first
is to allow access to the Router from anywhere on the Internet by selecting
“Any IP address can remotely manage the Router”. By typing in your WAN
IP address from any computer on the Internet, you will be presented with
a login screen where you need to type in the password of your Router. The
second method is to allow a specific IP address only to remotely manage
the Router. This is more secure, but less convenient. To use this method,
enter the IP address you know you will be accessing the Router from in the
space provided and select “Only this IP address can remotely manage the
Router”. Before you enable this function, it is STRONGLY RECOMMENDED
that you set your administrator password. Leaving the password empty will
potentially open your Router to intrusion.
