3. On the Famous Server List field, select the type of service you want to access. 4. On the Famous Game List field, select the popular game that you want to access. This item lists the port required for your selected popular online game to work properly. 5. On the Port Forwarding List table, key in the following information: • Service Name: Enter a service name. • Port Range: If you want to specify a Port Range for clients on the same network, enter the Service Name, the Port Range (e.g. 10200:10300), the LAN IP address, and leave the Local Port empty. Port range accepts various formats such as Port Range (300:350), individual ports (566,789) or Mix (1015:1024,3021). NOTES: • When your network's firewall is disabled and you set 80 as the HTTP server's port range for your WAN setup, then your http server/web server would be in conflict with the router's web user interface. • A network makes use of ports in order to exchange data, with each port assigned a port number and a specific task. For example, port 80 is used for HTTP. A specific port can only be used by one application or service at a time. Hence, two PCs attempting to access data through the same port at the same time would fail. For example, you cannot set up Port Forwarding for port 100 for two PCs at the same time. • Local IP: Key in the client's LAN IP address. NOTE: Use a static IP address for the local client to make port forwarding work properly. Refer to section 4.2 LAN for information. 66
