I want to be able to access the router remotely on port 8080.

  1. Start a Web browser. In the location or address line of your Web browser, type 192.168.2.1 and log in using the user name and password you previously configured in order to access the configuration pages.

  2. Click the Internet tab.

  3. Scroll down to the Remote Access section and select the checkbox for Allow access to this router from the Internet.



  4. For Port, enter 8080.

  5. Click Save at the bottom of the page. Go back to the Remote Access section. You should now see a Remote address with a port number at the end separated by a colon. For example, http://154.133.9.24:8080. Write the correct remote address down. You should now be able to log on to the router, through the Internet, from any remote location.
