Manually Configuring your Modem/Router
Setting the Time and Time Zone
The Modem/Router keeps time by connecting to a Simple Network
Time Protocol (SNTP) server. This allows the Modem/Router
to synchronise the system clock to the global Internet. The
synchronised clock in the Modem/Router is used to record the
security log and control client filtering.
Select desired NTP time servers and the time zone that you reside
in, then click “Apply Changes”. The system clock may not update
immediately. Allow at least 15 minutes for the Modem/Router to
contact the time servers on the Internet and get a response. You
cannot set the clock yourself.
Enabling Remote Management
Before you enable this advanced feature of your Belkin Modem/
Router, MAKE SURE YOU HAVE SET THE ADMINISTRATOR
PASSWORD. Remote management allows you to make changes to
your Modem/Router’s settings from anywhere on the Internet.
Click on the “Change Settings” button to bring up the “Remote
Management” page.
There are two methods of remotely managing the Modem/Router.
The first is to allow access to the Modem/Router from anywhere
on the Internet by selecting “Any IP address can remotely manage
the Modem/Router”. By typing in your WAN IP address from any
computer on the Internet, you will be presented with a login screen
where you need to type in the password of your Modem/Router.
The second method is to allow a specific IP address only to remotely
manage the Modem/Router. This is more secure, but less convenient.
To use this method, enter the IP address you know you will be
accessing the Modem/Router from in the space provided and select
“Only this IP address can remotely manage the Modem/Router”.
Before you enable this function, it is STRONGLY RECOMMENDED
that you set your administrator password. Leaving the password
empty will potentially open your Modem/Router to intrusion.
