and malicious activities on the Internet.
• Port Forwarding: Configure a Port Forwarding setting to enable external computers
to access WWW, FTP or other services provided by LAN.
• UPnP Settings: Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) is a set of networking protocols that
allows networked devices, such as PC, printers, Internet gateways, Wi-Fi access
points and mobile devices, to seamlessly discover each other’s presence on the
network and establish functional network services for data sharing, communications,

Using Mobile Hotspot’s Whitelist
Your mobile hotspot is equipped with a Whitelist feature that will allow you to secure your
network’s privacy. When this feature is activated, only users that have been granted
access by adding a user’s MAC address will be able to connect to the network. When the
primary user deactivates this feature, all other users will be allowed access to network via
Wi-Fi and use of correct password.
