Make Applications Free from Port Restriction by DMZ When a computer 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, like IP camera and database software, you can set the computer 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 computer 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 computer as a DMZ with all ports opened. 1. Assign a static IP address to your computer, for example 192.168.0.100. 2. Visit http://tplinkwifi.net, and log in with the username and password you set for your Touch P5. 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. 5. Click Save. Chapter 2 . Configure Touch P5 as a Router 56
