Tips: 1. You can add multiple port triggering rules according to your network need. 2. If the application you need is not listed in the Existing Applications list, please enter the parameters manually. You should verify the external ports the application uses first and enter them into External Port field according to the format the page displays. 6. 3. Make Applications Free from Port Restriction by DMZ When a PC is set to be a DMZ (Demilitarized Zone) host in the local network, it is totally exposed to the Internet, which can realize the unlimited bidirectional communication between internal hosts and external hosts. The DMZ host becomes a virtual server with all ports opened. When you are not clear about which ports to open in some special applications, such as IP camera and database software, you can set the PC to be a DMZ host. Note: DMZ is more applicable in the situation that users are not clear about which ports to open. When it is enabled, the DMZ host is totally exposed to the Internet, which may bring some potential safety hazard. If DMZ is not in use, please disable it in time. I want to: make the home PC join the Internet online game without port restriction. For example, Due to some port restriction, when playing the online games, you can login normally but cannot join a team with other players. To solve this problem, set your PC as a DMZ with all ports opened. How can I do that? 1. Assign a static IP address to your PC, for example 192.168.0.100. 2. Visit http://tplinkwifi.net, and log in with the username and password you set for the router. 3. Go to Advanced > NAT Forwarding > DMZ and select the checkbox to enable DMZ. 4. Enter the IP address 192.168.0.100 in the DMZ Host IP Address filed. Chapter 6 . NAT Forwarding 23
