Configure Sky Max up without Sky app

[BenP2]

Hello.

I'm trying to configure my new Sky Max hub to replicate the settings on my older Sky hub (or, correctly, router.)

First issue is that the backup from my old hub can't be uploaded to the device. I've tediously sat and entered all my IP address reservations. 

Now I'm lookign to set up UPnP, firewall and port forwarding rules.

Apparently, I can't do this from the web page, and can only do it from the app.

I wish to configure the device before I swap it with my working router and confirm everything is correctly loaded on it - without causing any interruption to the services I have running on my internet. 

Can any one tell me a way I can get full access to all the settings of the router via it's IP address, including port forwarding without using the Sky app?

Alternativly, I will send this router back to Sky.

The SR213 only seems to become locked down after you've connected the internet & it's associated with your account. So you should simply be able to make the changes in the web interface.

If you have connected it previously they will be disabled & you will have to factory reset it. Obviously backup the changes you've already made but there's a chance that restoring will disable the settings again.

No surprise that the backup from a different model won't load.
