Linksys WAG200G by PeCet

If you try to manage remotely your Linksys WAG200G adsl modem and router then you have to notice the following things:

Enable remote management from the administration of your linksys router (it's located by default at http://192.168.1.1 and username and password is admin)

Check if your ISP (internet service provider) is blocking any ports.

Go to http://www.canyouseeme.org/ and see if port 8080 is open. (Change the port for more security)

If the port is open then you can visit your router with the following link https://your ip here:port

Firefox or Internet Explorer will not load the administration until you grand access of the certificate. Trust the certificate and Voila! A popup dialog will ask you for username and password.

Change username and password for security reasons.

That's it!!

Also from Applications&Gaming page you can forward any ports you want. For example web server, ftp server, remote desktop etc.

Hope it helped!
