Universal Plug And Play - NETGEAR D6300 User Manual

Normal web browser access uses the standard HTTP service port 80. For greater
security, enter a custom port number for the remote web management interface. Choose
a number from 1024 through 65535, but do not use the number of any common service
port. The default is 8080, which is a common alternate for HTTP.
5. Click Apply to have your changes take effect.
6. When accessing your WiFi modem router from the Internet, type your WiFi modem router's
WAN IP address into your browser's address or location field followed by a colon (:) and the
custom port number. For example, if your external address is 134.177.0.123 and you use
port number 8080, enter http://134.177.0.123:8080 in your browser.

Universal Plug and Play

Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) helps devices, such as Internet appliances and computers,
to access the network and connect to other devices as needed. UPnP devices can
automatically discover the services from other registered UPnP devices on the network.
Note: If you use applications such as multiplayer gaming, peer-to-peer
connections, or real-time communications such as instant
messaging or remote assistance (a feature in Windows XP), you
should enable UPnP.
