Allow/deny VPN connections through your router
Management > Remote Management
A Virtual Private Network (VPN) is a network that uses a public network, such as the
Internet, to provide secure communications between a remote computer or network
and another network. Some offices often provide VPN access to their networks to
enable employees to work from their remote office/home office, or while traveling.
If your office or place of work has allowed and authorized access for you to access their
network through VPN, the default VPN settings in your router have been configured to
pass through the most common types of VPN protocols, which typically do not require
any additional configuration changes.
1. Log into your router management page (see “Access your router management page”
on
page 27
).
2. Click on
Management
, and click on
Remote Management
.
3. Next to
PPTP, L2TP, or IPsec
(depending the VPN protocol your corporation requires)
click
Enabled
or
Disabled
to turn the VPN pass through feature on or off on your router.
Note:
It is recommended to leave these settings enabled.

Identify your network on the Internet
Main > Dynamic DNS
Since most ISPs constantly change your home IP address, providing access to devices on
your home or small office Local Area Network (such as IP Cameras) from the Internet
requires setting up a Dynamic DNS service and entering the parameters into this
management area. Dynamic DNS services allow your router to confirm its location to the
given Dynamic DNS service, thereby providing the Dynamic DNS service with the ability
to provide a virtual fixed IP address for your network. This means that even though your
ISP is always changing your IP address, the Dynamic DNS service will be able to identify
your network using a fixed address—one that can be used to view home IP Camera and
other devices on your local area network.
Note:
First, you will need to sign up for one of the DDNS service providers listed in the
Server Address
drop-down list
.
1. Sign up for one of the DDNS available service providers list under
Server Address
.
(e.g
. dyndns.com, no-ip.com
, etc.)
2. Log into your router management page (see “Access your router management page”
on
page 27
).
3. Click on
Main
and click on
Dynamic DNS
.
4. Next to DDNS, click
Enabled.
5. In the
Server Address
drop-down list, select the provider you selected, and enter your
information in the fields.
•
Host Name: Personal URL provided to you by your Dynamic DNS service
provider (e.g. www.trendnet.dyndns.biz)
•
User Name: The user name needed to log in to your Dynamic DNS service
account
•
Password: This is the password to gain access to Dynamic DNS service (NOT
your router or wireless network password) for which you have signed up to.

Open a device on your network to the Internet
This router can provide access to devices on your local area network to the Internet
using the Virtual Server, Special Application, method (DMZ NOT recommended).
DMZ
Access > DMZ
You may want to expose a specific computer or device on your network to the Internet
to allow anyone to access it. Your router includes the DMZ (Demilitarized Zone) feature
that makes all the ports and services available on the WAN/Internet side of the router
and forwards them to a single IP address (computer or network device) on your
network. The DMZ feature is an easy way of allowing access from the Internet however,
it is a very
insecure
technology and will open local area network to greater threats from
Internet attacks.
It is strongly recommended to use
Virtual Server
(also called port forwarding, see
“Virtual Server” on
page 36
) to allow access to your computers or network devices from
the Internet.
1. Make the computer or network device (for which you are establishing a DMZ link) has
a static IP address (or you can use the DHCP reservation feature to ensure the device
has a fixed IP address) (see “Set up DHCP reservation” on
page 32
).
A. Signing up for a Dynamic DNS service (outlined in the DDNS section) will
provide identification of the router’s network from the Internet.
2. Log into your router management page (see “Access your router management page”
on
page 27
).
3. Click on
Access
, and click on
DMZ
.
4. Next to
DMZ Enable
, click
Enabled
.
5. Next to
DMZ Host IP
, enter the IP address you assigned to the computer or network
device to expose to the Internet.
6. To save changes, click

Virtual Server
Access > Virtual Server
Virtual Server (also called port forwarding) allows you to define specific ports (used or
required by a specific application) and forward them to a single IP address (a computer
or device) on your network. Using this feature is more secure compared to using DMZ
(see DMZ on
page 35
) in which DMZ forwards all ports instead of only specific ports
used by an application. An example would be forwarding a port to an IP camera
(TRENDnet IP cameras default to HTTP TCP port 80 for remote access web requests) on
your network to be able to view it over the Internet.
Since most ISPs constantly change your home IP address, to be able to access the Virtual
Server port(s) from the Internet it is recommended to setup Dynamic DNS service (See
DynDNS section).
1. Log into your router management page (see “Access your router management page”
on
page 27
).
2. Click on
Access
, and click on
Virtual Server
.
To simplify configuration, there is a list of commonly used pre-defined virtual server
entries to modify, otherwise, you can choose to manually add a new virtual server.
3. Review the virtual server settings.
•
Enabled
– Selecting
Enabled
turns on the virtual server and selecting
Disabled
turns off the virtual server.
•
Name
– Enter a name for the virtual server.
•
Protocol
– Select the protocol required for your device.
TCP
,
UDP
, or you can
select
Both
to choose both TCP & UDP (recommended).
Note:
Please refer to the device documentation to determine which ports and
protocols are required.
•
Private Port
– Enter the port number required by your device. Refer to the
connecting device’s documentation for reference to the network port(s)
required.
•
Public Port
– Enter the port number used to access the device from the
Internet.
Note:
The
Public Port
can be assigned a different port number than the
Private Port
(also known as port redirection), however it is recommended to use the same port
number for both settings. Please refer to the device documentation to determine
which ports and protocols are required.
•
LAN Server
– Enter the IP address of the device to forward the port (e.g.
192.168.10.101)
.
Note:
You should assign a static IP address to the device or use DHCP reservation to
ensure the IP address of the device does not change.
