Manage Your Modem Router
can also specify one device to manage the 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 or http://192.168.1.1, and log in with the password you
set for the modem router.
2. Go to Advanced > System Tools > Administration, and locate the Local Management
section.
3. Enable Local Management over HTTPS and keep the Port for HTTP and Port for
HTTPS as the default settings. Enter the IP address or MAC address of the local
device to manage the 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 all local devices can manage the router, just leave the IP/MAC Address field blank.
17. 7. 3. Remote Management
By default, the remote devices are not allowed to manage the 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 router over HTTPS.
1. Visit http://tplinkmodem.net or http://192.168.1.1, and log in with the password you
set for the modem router.
2. Go to Advanced > System Tools > Administration, and locate the Remote
Management section.
