to enable
port forwarding.

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 and Gaming > Port Range Forwarding
Port Range Forwarding
To forward a port, enter the information on each line for
the criteria required.
Appl±cat±on Name
In this field, enter the name you
wish to give the application. Each name can be up to 12
characters.
Start~End Port
Enter the number or range of port(s)
used by the server or Internet applications. 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 running the specific application. If you assigned
a static IP address to the PC, then you can click
DHCP
Reservat±on
on the
Basic Setup
screen to look up its static
IP address.
Enabled
Select
Enabled

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.

W±reless-G Router for 3G/UMTS Broadband
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.
Applications and Gaming > DMZ
DMZ
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.
Enabled/D±sabled
To
disable
DMZ
hosting,
select
D±sabled
. To expose one PC, select
Enabled
. Then
configure the following settings:
Source IP Address
If you want any IP address to be the
source, select
Any IP Address
. If you want to specify an IP
address or range of IP addresses as the designated source,
select and complete the IP address range fields.
Dest±nat±on
If you want to specify the DMZ host by IP
address, select
IP Address
and enter the IP address in
the field provided. If you want to specify the DMZ host
by MAC address, select
MAC Address
and enter the MAC
address in the field provided. To retrieve this information,
click
DHCP Cl±ent Table
.
DMZ > DHCP Client Table
DHCP Client Table
The DHCP Client Table lists computers and other devices
that have been assigned IP addresses by the Router.
The list can be sorted by Client Name, Interface, IP

Applications and Gaming > QoS
Quality of Service (QoS) ensures better service to

real-time
applications,
such
as
videoconferencing.

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.
