Configuring Your MG7310 to Support Devices and
Applications with Special Requirements
For Games Played on Game Consoles and PCs, and
Security Cameras
Devices including game consoles and security cameras often require special
router settings to work correctly. This may also be true of games that you
play on a PC or another device. For gaming, you probably want to use special
settings if you’re playing another person or a computer over the Internet.
You don’t need special settings for games that don’t involve connecting to
another player or computer over the Internet.
Typically, you will have to open ports on your router to support these devices.
There may be other settings that you need to change.
To open ports, first log into the Configuration Manager as described in
chapter 4. In summary, you type
