Wireless-G Broadband Router with 2 Phone Ports
The Applications & Gaming Tab - Port Range Forwarding
When you click the Applications & Gaming tab, you will see the
Port Range Forwarding
screen. Port Range
Forwarding sets 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 this type of request to your network via the Internet, the Router will forward
those requests to the appropriate PC.
Before using forwarding, you should assign a static IP address to the designated PC.
If you need to forward all ports to one PC, click the
DMZ
tab.
Port Range Forwarding
Port Range
To add a server using Port Range Forwarding, complete the following fields:
Application
. Enter the name of the application.
Start and End
. Enter the number or range of external port(s) used by the server or Internet application. Check
with the Internet application software documentation for more information.
Protocol
. Select the protocol
TCP
or
UDP
, or select
Both
.
IP Address
. Enter the IP address of the server that you want the Internet users to be able to access. To find the IP
address, go to “Appendix E: Finding the MAC Address and IP Address for Your Ethernet Adapter.”
Enable
. Check the
Enable
box to enable the services you have defined. Port Range Forwarding will not function if
the Enabled button is left unchecked. This is disabled (unchecked) by default.

Wireless-G Broadband Router with 2 Phone Ports
The Applications & Gaming Tab - Port Triggering
The
Port 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.
Port Triggering
Application
. Enter the application name of the trigger.
Triggered Range
For each application, list the triggered port number range. Check with the Internet application documentation for
the port number(s) needed.
Start Port
. Enter the starting port number of the Triggered Range.
End Port
. Enter the ending port number of the Triggered Range.
Forwarded Range
For each application, list the forwarded port number range. Check with the Internet application documentation for
the port number(s) needed.
Start Port
. Enter the starting port number of the Forwarded Range.
End Port
. Enter the ending port number of the Forwarded Range.

Wireless-G Broadband Router with 2 Phone Ports
The Applications & Gaming Tab - UPnP Forwarding
The
UPnP Forwarding
screen displays preset application settings as well as options to customize port services for
other applications.
UPnP Forwarding
Application
. Ten applications are preset. For custom applications, enter the name of your application in one of
the available fields.
The preset applications are among the most widely used Internet applications. They include the following:
FTP
(File Transfer Protocol). A protocol used to transfer files over a TCP/IP network (Internet, UNIX, etc.). For
example, after developing the HTML pages for a website on a local machine, they are typically uploaded to the
web server using FTP.
Telnet
. A terminal emulation protocol commonly used on Internet and TCP/IP-based networks. It allows a user at
a terminal or computer to log onto a remote device and run a program.
SMTP
(Simple Mail Transfer Protocol). The standard e-mail protocol on the Internet. It is a TCP/IP protocol that
defines the message format and the message transfer agent (MTA), which stores and forwards the mail.
DNS
(Domain Name System). The way that Internet domain names are located and translated into IP addresses. A
domain name is a meaningful and easy-to-remember “handle” for an Internet address.
TFTP
(Trivial File Transfer Protocol). A version of the TCP/IP FTP protocol that has no directory or password
capability.
Finger
. A UNIX command widely used on the Internet to find out information about a particular user, such as a
telephone number, whether the user is currently logged on, and the last time the user was logged on. The person
being “fingered” must have placed his or her profile on the system in order for the information to be available.
Fingering requires entering the full user@domain address.
HTTP
(HyperText Transport Protocol). The communications protocol used to connect to servers on the World Wide
Web. Its primary function is to establish a connection with a web server and transmit HTML pages to the client
web browser.
POP3
(Post Office Protocol 3). A standard mail server commonly used on the Internet. It provides a message store
that holds incoming e-mail until users log on and download it. POP3 is a simple system with little selectivity. All
pending messages and attachments are downloaded at the same time. POP3 uses the SMTP messaging protocol.
