Model: ER605 (TL-R605)  
Hardware Version: V2
Firmware Version: 2.2.6 Build 20240718 Rel.82712

Hello,

 

I was wondering if anyone knows how to disable public access to the gui interface? As it stands, I am able to put my public ip in the web browser and the page loads. There have other questions about this topic but I haven't found an exact answer. 

 

I am using an ER605 in standalone mode, SG2008P switch, and a EAP650 AP. 

 

Thanks for any assistance!

Check remote management isnt enabled

 

Also, you can difinitively block it by setting up an ACL

 

Block > WAN IN > IP_Any > Me

Main: ER8411 x1, SG3428X x1, SG3452 x1, SG2428LP x1, SG3210 x1, SG2218P x1, SG2008P x3, ES208G x1, EAP650 x6 Remote: ER7206 v2 x1, ER605 v2 x3, SG2008P x2, EAP650 x2, ES205G x1 Controller: OC300

If the remote management is off, then access from the WAN is not possible. 

I am wondering if you have tested the WAN side access correctly. More details and steps would be helpful.

"Me" blockes the gateway management page only

If remote management is not enabled, the GUI is not accessible from the internet.  The reason you can enter the GUI using the external IP address in your browser window is due to a feature called “NAT loopback” in the router.  Just do a Google search if you want to learn more about it.
