Model: TL-WR902AC  
Hardware Version: V3
Firmware Version:

Trying to set up remote management without success.  Followed the instructions in the link below:

 

https://www.tp-link.com/us/support/faq/2041/

 

When I try to access the router by going to the http://WANIPaddress:port - it does not connect.  I have tried connecting to the WAN IP address and the "gateway" address - neither work.  I have also tried to change the port to a custom number.

 

What else should I try to do to get remote management working?

  @travelleaf,

You would need to set the port to a custom number, and use the Publically visible IP address. You can oftentimes see this simply by running a speed test. Saying that, for outside access, you would still need that port to be opened for communications in the host network. Many IT admins will not use UPnP(opens ports as needed) due to security issues.

 

If you are simply trying to connect to the device, make sure that you have configured all the IP settings to allow your device access to remote management.
