Applications and Gaming > Single Port
Forwarding
The
Single Port Forwarding
screen allows you to customize
port services for common applications on this screen.
When users send these types of requests to your network via
the Internet, the Router will forward those requests to the
appropriate servers (computers). Before using forwarding,
you should assign static IP addresses to the designated
servers (use the DHCP Reservation feature on the
Basic Setup
screen).
Applications and Gaming > Single Port Forwarding
Single Port Forwarding
Common applications are available for the first five
entries. Select the appropriate application. Then enter the
IP address of the server that should receive these requests.
Select
Enabled
to activate this entry.
For additional applications, complete the following fields:
Application Name
Enter the name you wish to give the
application. Each name can be up to 12 characters.
External Port
Enter the external port number used by
the server or Internet application. Check with the Internet
application documentation for more information.
Internal Port
Enter the internal port number used by
the server or Internet application. Check with the Internet
application documentation for more information.
Protocol
Select the protocol used for this application,
either
TCP
or
UDP
, or
Both
.
To IP Address
For each application, enter the IP address
of the PC that should receive the requests. If you assigned
a static IP address to the PC, then you can click
DHCP
Reservation
on the
Basic Setup
screen to look up its static
IP address.
Enabled
For each application, select
Enabled
to enable
port forwarding.
Click
Save Settings
to apply your changes, or click
Cancel

Applications and Gaming > Port Range
Forwarding
The
Port Range Forwarding
screen allows you to set up
public services on your network, such as web servers,
ftp servers, e-mail servers, or other specialized Internet
applications. (Specialized Internet applications are any
applications that use Internet access to perform functions
such as videoconferencing or online gaming. Some Internet
applications may not require any forwarding.)
When users send these types of requests to your network via
the Internet, the Router will forward those requests to the
appropriate servers (computers). Before using forwarding,
you should assign static IP addresses to the designated
servers (use the DHCP Reservation feature on the
Basic Setup
screen).
If you need to forward all ports to one computer, click the
DMZ
tab.

Applications & Gaming > Port Range
Triggering
The
Port Range Triggering
screen allows the Router to
watch outgoing data for specific port numbers. The IP
address of the computer that sends the matching data is
remembered by the Router, so that when the requested
data returns through the Router, the data is pulled back
to the proper computer by way of IP address and port
mapping rules.

Applications and Gaming > DMZ
The DMZ feature allows one network computer to be
exposed to the Internet for use of a special-purpose
service such as Internet gaming or videoconferencing.
DMZ hosting forwards all the ports at the same time to
one PC. The Port Range Forwarding feature is more secure
because it only opens the ports you want to have opened,
while DMZ hosting opens all the ports of one computer,
exposing the computer to the Internet.

Any PC whose port is being forwarded must have its DHCP
client function disabled and should have a new static IP
address assigned to it because its IP address may change
when using the DHCP function.

hosting,
select

DHCP Client Table
The DHCP Client Table lists computers and other

Applications and Gaming > QoS
Quality of Service (QoS) ensures better service to
high-priority
types
of
network
traffic,
which
may
involve
demanding,
real-time
applications,
such
as
videoconferencing.
Applications and Gaming > QoS
QoS (Quality of Service)
Wireless
You can configure the support and No Acknowledgement
settings in this section.
WMM Support
If you have other devices that support Wi-
Fi Multimedia (WMM) on your network, keep the default,
Enabled
. Otherwise, select
Disabled
.
No Acknowledgement
If you want to disable the Router’s
Acknowledgement feature, so the Router will not re-send
data if an error occurs, then select
Enabled
. Otherwise,
keep the default,
Disabled
.
Internet Access Priority
In this section, you can set the bandwidth priority for a
variety of applications and devices. There are four levels
priority: High, Medium, Normal, or Low. When you set
priority, do not set all applications to High, because this will
defeat the purpose of allocating the available bandwidth.
If you want to select below normal bandwidth, select Low.
Depending on the application, a few attempts may be
needed to set the appropriate bandwidth priority.
Enabled/Disabled
To use the QoS policies you have set,
keep the default,
Enabled
. Otherwise, select
Disabled
.
