User Management

In order to prevent unauthorized access to your router’s configuration interface, it requires all users to login with a password. You can set up multiple user accounts, each with their own password.

You are able to Edit existing users and Add new users who are able to access the device’s configuration interface. Once you have clicked on Edit, you are shown the following options:

You can change the user’s password, whether their account is active and valid, as well as add a comment to each user account. Click Edit/Delete button to save your revise. You cannot delete the default admin account, if you do you will be log out. However, you can delete any other created accounts by clicking Delete when editing the user. You are strongly advised to change the password on the default “admin” account when you receive your router, and any time you reset your configuration to Factory Defaults.

Firewall and Access Control

Your router includes a full SPI (Stateful Packet Inspection) firewall for controlling Internet access from your LAN, as well as helping to prevent attacks from hackers. Besides, when using NAT, the router acts as a “natural” Internet firewall, as all PCs on your LAN will use private IP addresses that cannot be directly accessed from the Internet.

Firewall: Prevent outsiders from accessing your local network. The router provides three levels of security support:

NAT natural firewall: This masks LAN users’ IP addresses which are invisible to users on the

Internet, thus making it more difficult for a hacker to target a machine on your network. This natural firewall is turned on when NAT function is enabled.

Firewall Security and Policy (General Settings): Inbound direction of Packet Filter rules to prevent unauthorized computers or applications to access your local network from the Internet.

Intrusion Detection: Enable Intrusion Detection to detect, prevent and log malicious attacks.

Access Control: Prevent access from PCs on your local network.

Firewall Security and Policy (General Settings): Outbound direction of Packet Filter rules to prevent unauthorized computers or applications from accessing the Internet.

URL Filter: To block PCs on your local network from unwanted websites.
