Setting Idle time before log off:
ì
Enter the period in minutes after which the configuration program is to be aborted 
if no entry is made. The default setting is 10 minutes. If you enter the value 0, the 
program will never be aborted automatically.
ì
Click OK to accept the settings.
Setting up Remote Management 
Remote Management enables a PC that is not in your local network to be used to con-
figure the Gigaset SX541 WLAN dsl with a standard Web browser. You can permit 
Remote Management for one particular PC or for any PCs.
For security reasons, this function is only available if you have previously changed the 
system password for your device (see page 120).
ì
In the Administration menu, select Remote Management.
ì
Select the On option for Remote Management if you wish to permit Remote Man-
agement. 
You can start remote management by entering the public IP address in your Internet 
browser. As Internet providers often change this each time you dial in, it is worth using 
dynamic DNS (see page 90) in addition.
ì
You can change the Port via which you can access the configuration program from 
the Internet, for example in order to hide and protect the configuration program 
against unauthorised access.
Please remember:
If you ever forget your System Password, you will have to reset your Gigaset SX541 
WLAN dsl (see page 18). Please bear in mind that this will restore all the settings to 
the factory configuration. No System Password will be active either.
