Enabling Remote Management Access

Using the Remote Management page, you can allow a user or users on the Internet to configure,
upgrade and check the status of your WGT624 v3 wireless router.
Note: Be sure to change the router's default configuration password to a very secure
password. The ideal password should contain no dictionary words from any
language, and should be a mixture of letters (both upper and lower case), numbers,
and symbols. Your password can be up to 30 characters.
