Online Gaming
Read this chapter if you are going to use your Cable Modem/Router for online gaming.
Some online games require you to make changes to your firewall. This chapter explains
the different ways you can modify the firewall to allow your online gaming system access.
Gaming
If you are using your router for gaming, you may need to make changes to the router’s
firewall setting for the game to work. This is done by setting up a
DMZ
or using
Port
Triggering
so that the Cable Modem/Router’s firewall won’t block the other players
from your system during your gaming. The main difference between the methods is the
amount of access someone has to your system.
A DMZ allows access on all ports of the computer. Because of this, DMZ's are less
secure and should be used with caution with your computer. However DMZ’s work well
with gaming stations since security is not as much of an issue for gaming stations as it is
for computers.
Port triggering works by sensing when data is sent out on a predetermined outgoing port
and then automatically opening up the corresponding incoming port(s). It will
automatically forward the traffic on the incoming port to the computer that accessed the
outgoing port. If your game uses one port to send outgoing data and a different port (or
ports) for incoming data, you may want to use port triggering. You do not need to know
the IP address of your gaming station to set up port triggering. You will need to know
which ports your game requires you to open. This information is usually available with
your gaming software or you should be able to find it by searching for it on the web.
If you want to set up a DMZ for your gaming system, go to
DMZ Host
.
If you want to set up Port Triggering for your gaming system, go to
Port
Triggering
.

DMZ Host
The DMZ (De-militarized Zone) Host page allows you to configure a network device (e.g.
a PC or gaming system) to be visible directly to the Internet. This may be used if a game
doesn’t work with port triggers or if you are using a gaming system, where security is less
of a concern.
To set up a DMZ for your gaming system, you should first assign your gaming system a
static IP address.
Normally the Cable Modem/Router handles assigning IP addresses
to the different devices on your network using DHCP.
However DHCP does not
guarantee that your device will always get assigned the same IP address. The DMZ
needs to know the IP address of your gaming system to work, if the IP address changes
the DMZ will not work. Because your IP address could change over time you need to
assign a static IP on your gaming system. To setup a static IP address on your gaming
system, please refer to your gaming system’s documentation. If you no longer have the
documentation that came with your gaming system it usually can be found online.
When assigning a static IP address to your gaming system you should select an address
that is outside the IP addresses assigned by the Cable Modem/Router’s DHCP server.
By default the DHCP Server assigns addresses from 192.168.0.10 to 192.168.0.255.
We recommend using 192.168.0.5 as the static IP address for your gaming system.
To setup a
DMZ
for your gaming system:
1
Follow the instructions for your gaming system to assign a static IP address. We
recommend using 192.168.0.5.
2
Next access the Cable Modem/Routers configuration menu by launching a Web
browser on a computer that is directly connected to one of the router’s LAN ports.
3
In the browser address bar, type
and press the
Enter
key.
4
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.
5
Click the Login button to access the Cable Modem/Router. The
Status
page
appears.
6
Click
Advanced
in the menu bar.
7
Then click the
DMZ Host
submenu. The
DMZ Host
page appears:
