Configure the Router in Standard Router Mode
• The triggering ports can not be overlapped.
• If the application you need is not listed in the
Common Applications
list, please enter the parameters manually.
You should verify the incoming ports the application uses first and enter them in
Incoming Ports
field. You can
input at most 5 groups of ports (or port sections). Every group of ports must be set apart with “,”. For example,
2000-2038, 2050-2051, 2085, 3010-3030.
4. 6. 3. DMZ
When a PC is set to be a DMZ (Demilitarized Zone) host on the local network, it is totally
exposed to the Internet, which can realize the unlimited bidirectional communication
between internal and external hosts. The DMZ host becomes a virtual server with
all ports open. When you are not clear about which ports to open in some special
applications, such as IP camera and database software, you can set the PC to be a DMZ
host.
Note:
When DMZ is enabled, the DMZ host is totally exposed to the Internet, which may bring some potential safety
hazards. If DMZ is not in use, please disable it in time.
Make the home PC join the Internet online game without port
restriction.
For example
, due to some port restriction, when playing the
online games, you can log in normally but cannot join a team
with other players. To solve this problem, set your PC as a DMZ
host with all ports open.
1. Assign a static IP address to your PC, for example
192.168.0.100.
2. Visit
http://tplinkwifi.net
, and log in with the username and
password you set for the router.
3. Go to
Advanced
>
Forwarding
>
DMZ
.
4. Select
Enable
and enter the IP address 192.168.0.100 in the
DMZ Host IP Address
filed.
5. Click
Save
.
You’ve set your PC to a DMZ host and now you can make a team
to game with other players.
