this feature, keep the default setting, Disable. To enable this feature, select Enable, and use the
specified port (default is 8080) on your PC to remotely manage the Router. You must also change
the Router's default password to one of your own, if you haven't already. A unique password will
increase security.
To remotely manage the Router, enter http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:8080 (the x's represent the Router's
Internet IP address, and 8080 represents the specified port) in your web browser's Address field.
You will be asked for the Router's password. After successfully entering the password, you will be
able to access the Router's web-based utility.
Note: If the Remote Management feature is enabled, anyone who knows the Router's Internet IP
address and password will be able to alter the Router's settings.

MTU is the Maximum Transmission Unit. It specifies the largest packet size permitted for Internet
transmission. Keep the default setting, Auto, to have the Router select the best MTU for your
Internet connection. To specify a MTU size, select Manual, and enter the value desired (default is
1400). You should leave this value in the 1200 to 1500 range.
