Enter a port number between 1024 and 65535. The default for
HTTP (Web) connections is port 80, but using port 80 will
prevent the use of a Web "Virtual Server" on your LAN. So
using a different port number is recommended. The default
value is 8080.
The port number must be specified in your Browser when you
connect. To specify the port number :
1. From a remote location, start your Browser.
2. In the "Address" or "Location" field, enter the Internet IP
address of this device (NOT the LAN IP address), followed
by the port number, as follows:
http://ip_address:port_number

ip_address is the Internet IP address of this device.
port_number is the port number assigned on this screen.
3. You should then be prompted for the password for this
device. (You must assign a password!)
