Some applications may require the complete disabling of Network Address Translation

the router back to default mode and enable NAT, select the mode

Firewall
Your Router is equipped with a firewall that will protect your network from a wide array of
common hacker attacks including Ping of Death (PoD) and Denial of Service (DoS)
attacks. You can enable the
Firewall
feature by selecting from drop down menu. You
prevent your network from being “pinged,” or detected, by other Internet users. The
Firewall feature also reinforces your network security by hiding your network ports. You
can turn the firewall function off if it is interfering with an application’s function. Turning
off the firewall protection will not leave your network completely vulnerable to hacker
attacks, but it is recommended that you turn on the firewall whenever possible. This
feature is enabled by default.
You can enable/disable the Firewall in the
Firewall Enable/Disable
field.
Time Zone Setting
If required, you can setup the
Time Zone
. Change the time zone in which your network
functions from this pull down menu. In the part
NTP Servers
you can choose the IP
address of predefined time servers or you can type in the IP address of your own time
server for receiving the time synchronization.
