Chapter 3 Applications & Gaming > Port Triggering The Applications & Gaming > 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. Advanced Configuration Applications and Gaming > DMZ The DMZ feature allows one network computer 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 computer. 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. Applications and Gaming > Port Triggering 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 theTriggered Range.

Wireless-G Broadband Router with SpeedBooster Applications and Gaming > DMZ DMZ Any computer 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.

Click Save Settings to apply your changes, or click Cancel Changes to cancel your changes. Applications and Gaming > 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.

QoS is disabled by default. Upstream Bandwidth Select Auto or Manual from the drop-down menu. Manual allows you to specify the maximum outgoing bandwidth that applications can utilize. 18
