To connect from a remote PC via the Internet
1. Ensure your Internet connection is established, and start your Web Browser.
2. In the "Address" bar, enter "HTTP://" followed by the Internet IP Address of the TW100-
BRV304. If the port number is not 80, the port number is also required. (After the IP Ad-
dress, enter ":" followed by the port number.)
e.g.
HTTP://123.123.123.123:8080
This example assumes the WAN IP Address is 123.123.123.123, and the port number is 8080.

Enable to allow administration via the Internet. If Disabled, this
device will ignore management connection attempts from the Inter-
net.
Enter a port number between 1024 and 65535 (8080 is recom-
mended). This port number must be specified when you connect (see
below).
Note: The default port number for HTTP (Web) connections is port
80, but using port 80 here will prevent the use of a Web "Virtual
Server" on your LAN. (See Advanced Internet - Virtual Servers)
You must use this IP Address to connect (see below).
This IP Address is allocated by your ISP. But if using a Dynamic IP
Address, this value can change each time you connect to your ISP.
So it is better if your ISP allocates you a Fixed IP Address.
