Help: ATT removed Remote Access tab on 2701HG-B

Hello,

I recently signed up with ATT and bought a 2wire 2701HG-B DSL model/gateway. Things went fine until I tried to setup remote access to my home network. I would like to configure the router from outside of my home, like when I am traveling or at the library. However, I cannot find the Remote Access tab as shown in the following page: »support.att.net/bellsouth/asp/co···51be0954

I only have four tabs in the »homeportal configuration page: "System", "Broadband Link", "Home Network", "Firewall".

I called ATT support. They said it was a modern issue and asked me to contact 2wire. Then I contact 2wire, they replied that it is ATT that crippled the modern. I am kind of stuck here. Is there a way I can flush the firmware with an uncrippled version and enable this tab?

Thanks,
Steve

Your SOL you will have to set up windows netmeeting or some kind of vnc software on a computer runiing behind the 2wire and remotley access that to remote manage your 2wire.
