How to enable remote login to Thomson Technicolor router

To enable remote login / access via the WAN external IP on a Thomson Technicolor TG582n router, do the following:

  1. Log in to the router at https://192.168.1.254.
  2. Go to Toolbox -> Remote Assistance.
  3. Select ‘permanent’ (as opposed to ‘temporary’, which will disable remote access after router reset or 20 mins of inactivity).
  4. Optionally change the username. The default was ‘tech’.
  5. Optionally choose a password. By default it will create a random password.
  6. Enable.

You should now have a URL, username and password that allows you to login to the router from outside your internal network.
