5. Specify the port number that will be used for accessing the management interface.
Web browser access normally uses the standard HTTP service port 80. For greater security,
you can change the remote management Web interface to a custom port by entering that
number in the field provided. Choose a number between 1024 and 65535, but do not use the
number of any common service port. The default is 8080, which is a common alternate for
HTTP.
6. Click Apply to have your changes take effect.
When accessing your modem router from the Internet, you will type your modem router WAN
IP address in your Internet browser 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 8080, enter:
http://134.177.0.123:8080
Note: In this case, you must include http:// in the address.
