¾ Web Management Port - Web browser access normally uses the standard HTTP
service port 80. This router’s default remote management web port number is 80.
For greater security, you can change the remote management web interface to a
custom port by entering that number in the box provided. Choose a number
between 1024 and 65534, but do not use the number of any common service port.
¾ Remote Management IP Address - This is the current address you will use when
accessing your router from the Internet. The default IP address is 0.0.0.0. It means
this function is disabled. To enable this function, change the default IP address to
another IP address as desired.

Note:
1) To access the router, you will type your router's WAN IP address into your
browser's address (in IE) or Location (in Navigator) box, followed by a colon and
the custom port number. For example, if your Router's WAN address is
202.96.12.8, and the port number you use is 8080, please enter
http://202.96.12.8:8080
in your browser. Later, you may be asked for the router's
password. After successfully entering the username and password, you will be
able to access the router's web-based utility.
2) Be sure to change the router's default password to a very secure password.
