Remote management port

[Leeber]

Hello all, first post.

As a long-time Draytek user I recently bought a 7800DXL in readiness for a FTTC upgrade next week. Whilst setting the router up (which I have to say was a major PITA, the web interface is so unstable) I forwarded port 80 to my NAS. In response to this a message popped up saying that the router's remote management port has now been moved to 8080. My question is this; is there anyway to change this to a port of my choosing or am I stuck with using 8080 for managing the router whilst out and about?

With my last router there was the option to set whatever port I wanted (a Vigor 2710n).

Thanks in advance.

Try setting up a rule as shown in the attached screen shot within the virtual server section

For this example the 7800DXL web management port should change to 5800, tested off a external connection

Finally don't forget to enable remote access

Doh! Seems obvious now that you've shown me how

Thanks, it works a treat.

Hi,

I have the 7800VDOX and need to change the remote management port from the default of port 80 and there is not option anywhere that I can see to change this.

There was an option to do this on my previous router the 7800N.

Would appreciate support how to change this, without having to wait for a new firmware?

Many Thanks
Neville

It most likely worked in previous firmware, in 2.32c I can not make it happen

Still can not understand what Remote Access entry is supposed to be or do

Enabling remote access seems to make remote management listen on WAN IP port 80

Had to tick/untick Valid for the range few times before it started filtering inputted addresses correctly (allow as opposed to block)

New firmware 2.32d will allow you to change the HTTP port so the screen shot I posted will not be needed (UK firmware already released on the this link viewtopic.php?f=18&t=2409)
