Remote Connecting to works PC

Post by jabberwocky »

I have a PTZ security camera in my business, some times i need to reboot/adjust the router (Billion 7800n) on my old netgear router it gave me the address to log into but it seems its not quite that simple with the 7800N.

I have looked at the remote access tab, but am a bit confused, what ip range am i inputting, that of my home router? (also Billion 7800N) also read i've think that i need to add mac address, is this correct?

I see there is also a tab for pptp but does this need the works PC to be switched on? Its usually switched off.

Any insight would be appreciated.

Enable remote access as shown in the attached screen shot, no need to enter a IP address or a MAC address.

Once done, you will need to find out your WAN IP address, this IP address will be used to connect to your router from a remote location.

You can find your WAN IP address on the 'Status' page of the router, or go to http://www.whatsmyip.org/ and your WAN IP address will be listed at the top of the page.

I hope this helps :D
