What settings do I change to play games with the router connected in the network?

router to forward in-bound data to a computer through an application-specific port or ports. To enable the support for these
Internet games, configure the
Custom Port Forwarding
Settings
portion of the
Port Forwarding
section to open a specific
port or a range of ports.
NOTE: It's recommended that you use some form of static IP addressing on the game hosting computer.
Does the Dell TrueMobile 2300 prevent hacker attacks?
