| [ATT CV] How to access Linksys TA setup when behind router
I've been travelling alot lately and don't know if this has been posted yet or not (I haven't seen it yet) but I am now able to access the setup of the Linksys wired TA. (I assume this would work for the Linksys wireless, too). I just upgraded from a D-Link TA, where the same might apply, but I haven't tested it as I'm currently using it as a doorstop. 
The only configuration changes I made on the TA was to enable remote administration, assign a remote admin port number (I chose 8082, but the default may be OK for you), and change the default password.
My current router (Netgear) always assigns the TA the same IP address through DHCP, so if you have that feature, I'd recommend doing that, else I'd setup the Linksys TA with a static IP. So, in my case, the IP of the TA is 192.168.100.105, and I chose 8082 for the remote admin port on the TA. So then I just open a browser and go to »192.168.100.105:8082/ , type in my password, and I'm in. Keep in mind that your TA IP and remote admin port number may be different than the above depending on your configuration.
Hopefully this may be useful to some of you, and that it hasn't been posted already.
