# Remote Management

By default, management access is only available to users on your local network. However, you can also manage the ADSL2+ Ethernet/USB Router from a remote host by entering the IP address of a remote computer on this screen.

1. Select the Enabled box, and enter the IP address of the Host Address.
   For remote management via WAN IP address, you need to connect using port 8080. Simply enter the WAN IP address followed by ":8080," for example: 123.456.78.9:8080

> Note: If you enable Remote Management and do not change the IP address from the default "0.0.0.0", any remote host will be able to access and manage the ADSL2+ Ethernet/USB Router.

2. Click SAVE SETTINGS.
