Link: Enable Remote Management

This link allows you to authorize a remotely-located person, such as a support technician, to directly access your Netopia Gateway. This is useful for fixing configuration problems when you need expert help. You can limit the amount of time such a person will have access to your Gateway. This will prevent unauthorized individuals from gaining access after the time limit has expired.

Click the Enable Rmt Mgmt link. The Enable Remote Management page appears.

Since you’ve already has entered an Admin password, you can use that Admin password or enter a new password. If you enter a new password, it becomes the temporary Admin pass- word. After the time-out period has expired, the Admin password reverts to the original Admin password you entered.

Enter a temporary password for the person you want to authorize, and confirm it by typing it again. You can select a time-out period for this password, from 5 to 30 minutes, from the pull-down menu. Be sure to tell the authorized person what the password is, and for how long the time-out is set. Click the Submit button.
