6.0 Firewall settings
A firewall can both be a software based solution or a hardware based solution. It
places a wall between your local network and the outer world, so to speak. Firewalls
usually check both incoming and outgoing data traffic. Firewalls can be set to block or
allow specific information from the Internet. Firewalls can also be set to block or allow
requests from within your local network.
6.1 Opening ports in the firewall
The option ‘Virtual server’ allows you to make a computer in your network (for instance
configured as an FTP or web server) available from the Internet. When using the
‘Virtual Server’ you can specify ports that need to be opened by the firewall. Opening
ports in the firewall can be necessary if you use programs that both receive and
transmit data (such as VPN, Kazaa, Azureus and some computer games).
Note! Before configuring the Virtual Server you first need to know which ports need to
be opened. Consult the help function or the documentation of the program for which
you wish to open ports.
1.
Open your Internet browser.
2.
Enter ‘http://192.168.1.1’ in the address bar.

6.2 Disabling the firewall
The DMZ or DeMilitarized Zone is a zone between the Internet and your local network.
Computers that are placed in the DMZ are reachable from the Internet. Therefore the
DMZ is often used for servers that are hosting web sites. People that frequently play
online games also often place their computer in a DMZ. It is however recommended to
install a software based firewall on the computer when placing it in a DMZ, because
the DMZ opens all ports to the computer. There are no restrictions on data traffic,
even though in some situations this is preferable.

Enter ‘http://192.168.1.1’ in the address bar.

Q:
My Internet connection is slow or unstable?
A:
The router can handle speeds up to 100 Mbps. These kinds of speed are very
demanding on your network cables. When using self made cables it often
happens that the small colored cables are not connected in the correct order. The
colors of a network cable need to be in the following order: white/orange, orange,
white/green, blue, white/blue, green, white/brown, brown.
