Hi, newbie here so please take it easy on me. I am having an issue where I am unable to enable web access from WAN because it is not showing up as an option. When I goto firewall under advanced settings I am not able to see this option. I am running FW 3.0.0.4.260.
I just want to be able to access my router settings remotely.
Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
 
WAN Access

Log into your router from the LAN.

Go into the administration section

Then select the system tab

Almost at the bottom of the page check the option to allow access from the WAN.

If you are going to do this be sure that your router's password is very strong with sixteen or more characters including numbers and special characters. This will make a brute force attack to gain access to your router and then your network very unlikely to succeed.

Thank you very much CaptainSTX, this was exactly the answer I was looking for.
