Model : ES5120

Hardware Version : v2

Firmware Version : 1.0.8

ISP : Zen, Plusnet

No problem accessing my router, a TL-ER5120 from my LAN. Before I left home on business I enabled remote access.but I didn't sped much time on the IP ranges hoping that if I leave the range at the default 0.0.0.0. then it would default to open access from all IP's - this appears to have been WRONG, hehe

Whats the best / most secure way to allow access from any IP address whilst I travel around?

Here is the relevant page in the manual, can't really get to grips with this :





Any advice appreciated

OK, so its not in the manual, that I can find and I have been googling and on some other TP-Link routers you can use the following subnet masks :

EDIT : I found the solution :

You need to enter 0.0.0.0 /32 subnet into the GUI, this opens access to all internet IP's (but still requires username and password

If you need to manage your router from LAN, just access 192.168.0.1. If you need to access from WAN, you need to set up remote management. TP-Link should has the FAQ for this function.
