| How do I enable or disable the Firewall on my HUAWEI router |
Your router has a firewall feature. A firewall is a security barrier between the Internet and your home network. When a firewall is enabled, all communication data between the Internet and your home network is scanned to protect your network security.
- Connect your computer/phone to the router's Wi-Fi , or connect the computer to the router's LAN port using an Ethernet cable. Enter the default IP address in your browser address bar and log in to your router's web-based management page (check the nameplate on the router for the default IP address) .
- For routers that feature self-adaptive ports, you do not need to distinguish between WAN and LAN ports.
- If you are connecting your phone to the router's Wi-Fi network, switch your phone's webpage to the PC-based UI before performing the following operations.
- Go to More Functions > Security Settings > Firewall. The firewall is enabled by default, but you can toggle Firewall to turn it on or off according to your needs.
