Can I log in to my modem from a remote location?

Or do I need to be home?  Asking because I want to find out which devices are connected and how much data they are consuming.

 

Thanks.

I think it's possible, but you're going to have to have remote access set up on your home computer, and you'd have to use something like VNC to do it (due to not having a static IP).  Then you'd have to remotely access the home computer to be able to access the modem's information pages.  It's convoluted, but I believe this is the only way it could work.  

 

If you're asking about a simple way to just remotely access the modem's information pages through the internet, then no, as the only way to access it is through a device directly connected to it, whether via an Ethernet cable or WiFi, hence the need to remotely access the computer directly connected to it.  

 

If someone else knows a way I'm sure they'll reply.
