security, enter a custom port number for the remote router web interface. Choose
a number from 1024 to 65535, but do not use the number of any common service
port. The default is 8443, which is a common alternate for HTTP.
8. Click the Apply button.
Your settings are saved.
Use remote access
To use remote access:
1. Launch a web browser on a computer that is not on your home network.
2. Type your 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
8443, enter http://134.177.0.123:8443 in your browser.
