Chapter 14 Administrate Your Network 3. Enter the old password. Enter the new password and enter again to confirm. 4. Click Save to make the settings effective. 14. 5. Local Management You can control the local devices' authority to manage the modem router via Local Management feature. By default all local connected devices are allowed to manage the modem router. You can also specify one device to manage the modem router and enable local management over a more secure way, HTTPS. Follow the steps below to allow only the specific device to manage the router via the local management over HTTPS. 1. Visit http://tplinkmodem.net, and log in with the account you set for the router. 2. Go to Advanced > System Tools > Administration page. Locate the Local Management section. 3. Keep the Port as the default setting. Enable Local Management via HTTPS and keep the Port for HTTPS as the default setting. Enter the IP address or MAC address of the local device to manage the modem router. 4. Click Save. Now, you can manage the modem router over both HTTP (http://tplinkmodem.net) and HTTPS (https://tplinkmodem.net). Note: If you want that all local devices can manage the modem router, just leave the IP/MAC Address field blank. 14. 6. Remote Management By default, the remote devices are not allowed to manage the modem router from the internet. You can enable remote management over HTTP and/or HTTPS if needed. HTTPS is a more secure way to access the router. Note: If your ISP assigns a private WAN IP address (such as 192.168.x.x or 10.x.x.x), you cannot use the remote management feature because private addresses are not routed on the internet. 77
