Don't forget to add settings to the Firewall. This is only needed if remote management is needed. Even though UHTTPD is really good about security, it is strongly recommended to restrict GUI access to a limited number of IP Addresses. See example below;<syntaxhighlight lang="text"> | Don't forget to add settings to the Firewall. This is only needed if remote management is needed.

In fact after an hour of testing the LuCU HTTPD GUI was so wonky and unpredictable, it became pointless to give explicit directions.

Given the push for everything being secure, it's really a wonder all of this isn't part of a default package thing for the Linksys AC Series of routers given how much storage space they have. For smaller routers with less storage space, it is certaintly understandable for conserving storage space, yet...
