16. 7. 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 your TP-Link ID or the password 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 Management over 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.
16. 8. 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.
Follow the steps below to allow remote devices to manage the modem router over
HTTPS.
