MR1100-100 M1 - how to get Anywhere Access
We have a new MR1100-100 M1 at our Village Hall, which controls wifi, CCTV, and solar. Firmware is up to date 12.06.39.00. It is operating correctly, I think.
I want to access it remotely for admin purposes. I have looked at the settings in the device several times but can't see the answers.
Where is the "Anywhere Access" software switch ? It is not evident.
And where is the web-page address specified for log-on from the outside ?
There is an IP address 10.xx.xx.xxx specified in the device but I can't get on from my home.
What is the "custom port" that is mentioned elsewhere on the web ? 8080 by default ? Or what ? Where is it defined ?
Thank you.
If it's not documented in the user manual, I don't think it is a supported function. I have owned a few of these mobile hotspots and they never had Anywhere Access. The closest thing would be Netgear Insight, but even that isn't available on all mobile routers like this one, and on the Pro models that have this, this would be a subscription service. I never tried this, so my take on the Insight might be inaccurate. I did not see remote management in the documentation, so the likely answer is that you are not able to do the something like that on the MR1100.
