You have a connection to the Internet via your modem and you can surf using devices that are connected to the LAN side of the HS800 (default IP’s in the 10.0.0.x range)

You would like to specify certain IP addresses that can administer the HS800 both from the LAN and WAN (outside of office) side.

Login to http://10.0.0.1/ as the administrator and navigate to Advanced Setup / System and scroll down to following section:

Click on Specify

List IP addresses that will allow people to access HS800 login screen and click the Apply button. In this example three IP’s are able to access the HS800: 10.0.0.2, 10.0.0.3 and 202.44.165.195. The first two are on the LAN side of the HS800 and the last one is the WAN IP of the other machine (i.e. another PC outside the office network).

To find out the IP if the PC is located on an intranet with an address in the private IP range (most common case), you can browse to the following address from the remote PC:

http://www.whatismyip.com/

You cannot browse to 10.0.0.1 from the 202.. machine. You need to find out the IP the modem/router/ISP has allocated to the HS800. To find this, you click on System Quick View in the bottom left of the screen:
