Local Management Access

to encrypt data transmitted for higher security. Select the 
HTTP or HTTPS. The default is HTTP.
Access via Wireless  If you are using the Router in a public 
domain  where  you  are  giving  wireless  access  to  your 
guests,  you  can  disable  wireless  access  to  the  Router’s 
web-based utility. You will only be able to access the utility 
via a wired connection if you disable the setting. Keep the 
default, Enabled, to allow wireless access to the utility, or 
select Disabled to block wireless access to the utility.
Remote Management Access
Remote  Management  To  permit  remote  access  of  the 
Router  from  the  Internet  (outside  the  local  network), 
select Enabled. Otherwise, keep the default, Disabled.

and  wish  to  manage  the  Router,  enter  
http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:yyyy  or 
https://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:yyyy,  depending 
on whether you use HTTP or HTTPS. Enter the
