Hendrik-Blog: Rahasia : How to Remote Access a Linksys Router

A Linksys router is located between your DSL or cable modem and your internal network. You can access the router's configuration console anywhere from the internal network. However, to access the console from a remote location, you need to change the settings in the administration section. By default, the Linksys router blocks all attempts at remotely accessing the console for security reasons. However, for administrators who manage networks remotely, you can enable this option.

Difficulty: Moderate

Open a Web browser on a machine located within the internal network. Enter the router's IP address into the navigation text box. Enter your user name and password for the router when prompted.
Click the "Administration" tab. Scroll down to the section labeled "Remote Management." Select "Enable" and enter a port number. For convenience, you can leave the default at 8080. Check the box labeled "HTTPS." This setting encrypts the information between your remote machine and the router.
Enter a user name and password for administration. The Linksys router will not allow you to leave the default password when enabling remote administration.
Click the "Save" button to save the settings. Click the "Status" tab. Notice the external IP address for the router. This is the address you need to access the Linksys remotely.
Open a Web browser again and enter the IP address from Step 4. You are now able to manage the Linksys router from the Internet or any remote location.
