Configure Touch P5 as a Router
Note:
1. You can add multiple port triggering rules according to your network needs.
2. If the application you want to use is not in the list of
Existing
Applications
, you can enter the corresponding parameters manually. You
should verify the ports number that the application needs.
2. 23. 3. 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.
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

DMZ
and select the checkbox to enable DMZ.
4. Enter the IP address 192.168.0.100 in the
DMZ Host IP Address
filed.
