Not so many devices would open the remote visit by default 'cause it would be risky for Hackers, especially devices used in public network. i think you could contact TP-LINK guy and let them guide you to change something. To my experience, there should be options to enable this.However after that, be careful for the Hacker. Cheers~

you should open ACL , the default setting of ACL on TD-W8961 is lan access , if you want access the modem remotely, you can change the rule to Both. :D
