To access your wireless modem router from the Internet, type your wireless modem
router's WAN IP address in your browser's Address field, followed by a colon (:) and the
custom port number. For example, if your external address is 134.177.0.123 at port
number 8080, enter the following in your browser:
http://134.177.0.123:8080
The http:// is required in the address.
Note:
Static Routes
Static routes provide additional routing information to your router. Under normal
circumstances, the router has adequate routing information after it has been configured for
Internet access, and you do not need to configure additional static routes. Only configure
static routes for unusual cases such when you have multiple routers or multiple IP subnets on
your network.
Static Route Example
As an example of when a static route is needed, consider the following case:
Your primary Internet access is through a cable modem to an ISP.
•
You have an ISDN router on your home network for connecting to the company where
•
you are employed. This router's address on your LAN is 192.168.0.100.
Your company's network address is 134.177.0.0.
•
When you first configured your router, two implicit static routes were created. A default route
was created with your ISP as the wireless modem router, and a second static route was
created to your local network for all 192.168.0.x addresses. With this configuration, if you
attempt to access a device on the 134.177.0.0 network, your router forwards your request to
the ISP. The ISP forwards your request to the company where you are employed, and the
request is likely to be denied by the company's firewall.
In this case you have to define a static route, telling your router that 134.177.0.0 should be
accessed through the ISDN router at 192.168.0.100. The static route setup would look like

In this example:
The Destination IP Address and IP Subnet Mask fields specify that this static route

applies to all 134.177.x.x addresses.
