Multiple connections are required by some applications, such as internet games, video conferencing,
Internet telephony, and others. These applications have difficulties working through NAT (Network
Address Translation). The Gaming section is used to open multiple ports or a range of ports in your
router and redirect data through those ports to a single PC on your network. This feature allows you to

Range (50-100)
Individual (80, 68, 888)
Mixed (1020-5000, 689)
