Wireless Modem Router via the Internet. From the main menu, under Advanced, select
Remote Management.
Figure 35.
Note:
Be sure to change the wireless modem router's default configuration
password to a very secure password. The ideal password should
contain no dictionary words from any language, and should be a
mixture of letters (both uppercase and lowercase), numbers, and
symbols. Your password can be up to 30 characters.
To configure your wireless modem router for remote management:
1. Select the Turn Remote Management On check box.
2.
Under Allow Remote Access By, specify what external IP addresses will be allowed to
access the wireless modem router's remote management.
Note:
For enhanced security, restrict access to as few external IP
addresses as practical.
