Disable external Access
How do you disable http access to the router. When I type http://myip into a browser, I get a login prompt to routerlogin. How do I disable that?
Are you trying this from a remote location outside the home or trying this while at home on the same network?
When I hit my external ip, issued by the ISP, I get a prompt for a login for routerlogin.net. How do I get rid of this prompt?

You are 100% correct. I was hitting my external nat from inside to the outside and did not even think to test it completely offsite. Thanks everyone for the help.
Ya if your on the LAN side, data is still going to get to the router on this side.
Try at a remote location away from home. Shouldn't see the log in for the router here.
Good Luck.
