Your gaming system should now work with all your online games.

Port Triggers

Port Triggering works by sensing when your game sends data out through a specific

port. The outgoing data signals the router to allow the incoming game traffic to be passed

through the firewall on the correct port.

Since the ports are only open when you are

gaming, port triggering is a very secure method for online gaming.

To set up port triggering you need to know what ports your game is using and whether

they use TCP, UDP or both on those ports. Typically this should be included with your

gaming software. If it is not included, try entering the name of your gaming software

followed by “ports used”.

Some games use the same ports for both incoming and outgoing traffic, while other

games use different ports for incoming and outgoing traffic.

Below is an example of setting up the popular game, World of Warcraft for port triggering.

Looking online, we find that World of Warcraft uses the following ports: 1119-1120, 3724,

4000, 6112-6114, and 6881-6999.

We can also find out that these ports are all TCP.

In this case the same ports are used for both incoming and outgoing traffic, so we would

use the same ports as both the triggering port and the target port as shown below.

To setup

port triggering

for World of Warcraft:

1

Launch a Web browser.

2

In the browser address bar, type

http://192.168.0.1

and press the

Enter

key.

3

In the Login screen, enter:

default username:

admin

default password:

admin

Both the username and password are case sensitive. The default username and

password are printed on the bottom label of your unit.

4

Click the Login button to access the Cable Modem/Router. The

Status

page

appears.

5

Click

Advanced

in the menu bar.

6

Then click the

Port Triggers

submenu. The

Port Triggers

page appears.

7

We will need to setup 5 triggers for World of Warcraft.

The first rule would cover

ports 1119-1120. Enter 1119 in the

Trigger Start Port

field and 1120 in the

Trigger

End Port

field. Since these ports are used to send data both directions enter 1119 in

the

Target Start Port

and 1120 in the

Target End Port

.

Select

TCP

in the

Protocol

drop down menu since these ports use TCP.

9

Enter a name for this rule, for example WOW1. Click

Enable

then click

Apply

. Your

new rule will appear in the table.

10

Repeat steps 7-9 for the next rule.

In this case only one port is used, 3724.

Enter

3724 in the

Trigger Start/End Port

and

Target Start/End Port

fields.

11

Repeat steps 7-9 for the remaining ports that need to be opened.

When you are

complete the table should look like this:

If your online game does not work and you are sure that you entered the correct ports

on the port triggering page, check to see if you have a firewall running on your

computer that is preventing you from playing your online game. This firewall may be

either the built-in Windows firewall or may be part of a third party security package

you are using on your computer. You will need to allow access through these

firewalls to be able to play your online game.

Advanced Settings

Advanced Setup is primarily for technically advanced users. For most people, the

options that are set by default when the Cable Modem/Router is installed are sufficient.

However, those who want or need to change the default settings can do so using the

advanced setup pages in the

Zoom Configuration Manager

.

This chapter includes:



Suggestions for settings that you might want to change



Instructions for launching the Zoom Configuration Manager

program



An overview of the available configuration menus and settings and a guide on

what chapter to go to for more information on each settings.

Changing Default Settings

Here are some reasons why you might want to use the Configuration program to change

the router's default settings.



Your Cable provider instructs you to enable, disable, or change the default settings

for your router



You want to set up a wireless guest network to give users access to the internet but

not your internal network.



You want to change the default firewall settings to block particular IP addresses and

intrusive hosts.



You want to access your corporate network and need to use the built-in VPN

function..



You wish to control the hours that a user on your network can access the Internet.
