Enable/disable UPnP on your router

Advanced > Advanced Network

UPnP (Universal Plug and Play) allows devices connected to a network to discover each

other and automatically open the connections or services for specific applications (e.g.

instant messenger, online gaming applications, etc.) UPnP is enabled on your router by

default to allow specific applications required by your computers or devices to allow

connections through your router as they are needed.

1. Log into your router management page (see “

Access your router management page

”

on page 31).

2. Click on

Advanced

, and click on

Advanced Network

3. Click the

UPnP

drop-down list and select

Enabled

to enable UPnP or

Disabled

disable UPnP.

Note:

It is recommended to leave this setting enabled, otherwise, you may encounter

issues with applications that utilize UPnP in order allow the required communication

between your computers or devices and the Internet.

Identify your network on the Internet

Administrator > Management

Since most ISPs constantly change your home IP address, providing access to devices on

your home or small office Local Area Network (such as IP Cameras) from the Internet

requires setting up a Dynamic DNS service and entering the parameters into this

management area. Dynamic DNS services allow your router to confirm its location to the

given Dynamic DNS service, thereby providing the Dynamic DNS service with the ability

to provide a virtual fixed IP address for your network. This means that even though your

ISP is always changing your IP address, the Dynamic DNS service will be able to identify

your network using a fixed address—one that can be used to view home IP Camera and

other devices on your local area network.

Note:

First, you will need to sign up for one of the DDNS service providers listed in

the

Server Address

drop-down list

1. Sign up for one of the DDNS available service providers list under

Server Address

(e.g

. dyndns.com, no-ip.com

, etc.)

2. Log into your router management page (see “

Access your router management page

”

on page 31).

3. Click on

Administrator

and click on

Management

4. Review the

DDNS Settings

section. Click

Apply

to save settings.

•

Dynamic DNS Provider:

Click the drop-down list Select your DDNS service.

•

Host Name:

Personal URL provided to you by your Dynamic DNS service provider

(e.g. www.trendnet.dyndns.biz)

•

User Name:

The user name needed to log in to your Dynamic DNS service

account

•

Password:

This is the password to gain access to Dynamic DNS service (NOT your

router or wireless network password) for which you have signed up to.

Open a device on your network to the Internet

This router can provide access to devices on your local area network to the Internet

using the Virtual Server, Special Application, method (DMZ NOT recommended).

DMZ

Advanced > DMZ

You may want to expose a specific computer or device on your network to the Internet

to allow anyone to access it. Your router includes the DMZ (Demilitarized Zone) feature

that makes all the ports and services available on the WAN/Internet side of the router

and forwards them to a single IP address (computer or network device) on your

network. The DMZ feature is an easy way of allowing access from the Internet however,

it is a very

insecure

technology and will open local area network to greater threats from

Internet attacks.

It is strongly recommended to use

Virtual Server

(also called port forwarding, see

“

Virtual Server

” on page 39) to allow access to your computers or network devices from

the Internet.

1. Make the computer or network device (for which you are establishing a DMZ link) has

a static IP address. Signing up for a Dynamic DNS service (outlined in

Identify Your

Network

section page 37) will provide identification of the router’s network from the

Internet.

2. Log into your router management page (see “

Access your router management page

”

on page 31).

3. Click on

Advanced

, and click on

DMZ

4. Select Enable in the

DMZ Settings

section.

5. Enter the IP address you assigned to the computer or network device to expose to the

Internet.

6. To save changes, click

Apply

Virtual Server

Advanced > Virtual Server

Virtual Server (also called port forwarding) allows you to define specific ports (used or

required by a specific application) and forward them to a single IP address (a computer

or device) on your network. Using this feature is more secure compared to using DMZ

(see “

DMZ

” on page 39) in which DMZ forwards all ports instead of only specific ports

used by an application. An example would be forwarding a port to an IP camera

(TRENDnet IP cameras default to HTTP TCP port 80 for remote access web requests) on

your network to be able to view it over the Internet. To open several ports please refer

to “

Gaming

” section on page 41.

Since most ISPs constantly change your home IP address, to be able to access the Virtual

Server port(s) from the Internet it is recommended to setup Dynamic DNS service

(outlined in

Identify Your Network

section page 37).

1. Log into your router management page (see “

Access your router management page

”

on page 31).

2. Click on

Advanced

, and click on

Virtual Server

3. Select Enable in the Virtual Server Function section.

4. Review the virtual server settings. Click

Apply

to save settings.

Protocol

: Select the protocol required for your device.

TCP

UDP

Note:

Please refer to the device documentation to determine which ports and

protocols are required.

You should assign a static IP address to the device or

use DHCP reservation to ensure the IP address of the device does not change.

•

Public Port:

Enter the port number used to access the device from the Internet.

•

LAN IP Address:

Enter the IP address of the device to forward the port (e.g.

192.168.10.101)

•

Schedule:

Select the defined schedule you would like to have the rule to be

applied (see “

Create Schedule

” section on page 38).

Note:

The

Public Port

can be assigned a different port number than the

Private

Port

(also known as port redirection), however it is recommended to use the

same port number for both settings. Please refer to the device documentation

to determine which ports and protocols are required.

•

Enabled:

Selecting

Enabled

turns on the virtual server and unchecking disabled

the rule..

Example: To forward TCP port 80 to your IP camera

Setup DynDNS service (see

Identify Your Network

section page 37).

Access TRENDnet IP Camera management page and forward Port 80 (see product

documentation)

Make sure to configure your network/IP camera to use a static IP address.

Note:

You may need to reference your camera documentation on configuring a

static IP address.

4. Log into your router management page (see “

Access your router management page

”

on page 31).

5. Click on

192.168.10.101

)

9. Next to

Special Applications

Advanced > Special Application

Special applications (also called port triggering) is typically used for online gaming

applications or communication applications that require a range of ports or several

ports to be dynamically opened on request to a device on your network. The router will

wait for a request on a specific port or range of ports (or trigger port/port range) from a

device on your network and once a request is detected by your router, the router will

forward a single port or multiple ports (or incoming port/port range) to the device on

your network. This feature is not typically used as most devices and routers currently

use UPnP (Universal Plug and Play) to automatically configure your router to allow

access for applications. See “

Enable/disable UPnP on your router

” on page 36.

Note:

Please refer to the device documentation to determine if your device supports

UPnP first, before configuring this feature.

1. Log into your router management page (see “

Access your router management page

”

on page 31).

2. Click on

Advanced

, and click on

Special Application

3. Select

Enable

under

Port Triggering Function

4. Review the special application settings. Click

Apply

to save settings.
