Chapter 6: Configuring the Wireless-G Media Storage Link Router
The Applications and Gaming Tab - Port Range Forward
Wireless-G Media Storage Link Router with SpeedBooster
The Applications and Gaming Tab - Port Range Forward
The Applications and Gaming Tab 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.)
Port Range Forward
To forward a port, enter the information on each line for the criteria required. The criteria are described here.
Port Range
Application
. In this field, enter the name you wish to give the application. Each name can be up to 12 characters.
Start/End
. This is the port range. Enter the number that starts the port range under
Start
and the number that
ends the range under
End
.
Protocol
. Enter the protocol used for this application, either
TCP
or
UDP
, or
Both
.
IP Address
. For each application, enter the IP Address of the PC running the specific application.
Enable
. Click the
Enable
checkbox to enable port forwarding for the relevant application.
After you have made your changes, click the
Save Settings
button to apply your changes, or click the
Cancel
Changes
button to cancel your changes.

The Applications & Gaming Tab - Port Triggering
Wireless-G Media Storage Link Router with SpeedBooster
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.
After you have made your changes, click the
Save Settings
button to apply your changes, or click the
Cancel
Changes
button to cancel your changes.

The Applications and Gaming Tab - DMZ

The Applications and Gaming Tab - DMZ
The DMZ feature allows one network user 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 Forward 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.
DMZ
To expose one PC, select
Enable
. Then, enter the computer's IP address in the
DMZ Host IP Address
field.
After you have made your changes, click the
Save Settings
button to apply your changes, or click the
Cancel
Changes
button to cancel your changes.

Chapter 6: Configuring the Wireless-G Media Storage Link Router
The Applications and Gaming Tab - QoS
Wireless-G Media Storage Link Router with SpeedBooster
The Applications and Gaming Tab - 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.
There are three types of Wired QoS available, Device Priority, Application Priority, and Ethernet Port Priority. You
can also configure Wireless QoS on this page.
Wired QoS
Enable/Disable
. To limit outgoing bandwidth for the QoS policies in use, select
Enable
. Otherwise, select
Disable
.
Upstream Bandwidth
. Select the bandwidth to be used from the drop-down menu. This setting allows you to
limit the outgoing bandwidth for the QoS policies in use, so you can control how much bandwidth a particular
application is allowed to use.
Device Priority
Device name
. Enter the name of your network device in the
Device name
field.
Priority
. Select its priority level from the drop-down menu.
MAC Address
. Enter its MAC Address in the fields provided.
Ethernet Port Priority
Ethernet Port Priority QoS allows you to prioritize performance for four of the Router’s ports, LAN Ports 1-4.
(Ethernet Port Priority QoS does not require support from your ISP because the prioritized ports are LAN ports
going out to your network.)
Priority
. For each port, select its priority level from the drop-down menu.
Flow Control
. If you want the Router to control the transmission of data between network devices, select
Enable
.
To disable this feature, select
Disable
.
Application Port Priority
Application Port Priority QoS manages information as it is transmitted and received. Depending on the settings of
the
QoS
screen, this feature will assign information a high or low priority for up to eight applications.

The Router features Wi-Fi Multimedia (WMM™) Support. The No Acknowledgement feature is available only
when the WMM Support feature is enabled.
WMM Support
. If you have other devices on your network that support WMM, select
Enable
from the drop-down
menu. Otherwise, keep the default,
Disable
.
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
Enable
from the drop-down menu. Otherwise, keep the default,
Disable
.
