Using a Special Application
Configure the Special Applications screen as required.
On your PC, use the application normally. Remember that only one (1) PC can
use each Special application at any time. Also, when 1 PC is finished using a par-
ticular Special Application, there may need to be a "Time-out" before another PC
can use the same Special Application. The "Time-out" period may be up to 3 min-
utes.
If an application still cannot function correctly,
try using the "DMZ" feature.
Multi-DMZ
This feature, if enabled, allows the DMZ computer or computers on your LAN to be
exposed to all users on the Internet.
This allows almost any application to be used on the "DMZ PC".
The "DMZ PC" will receive all "Unknown" connections and data.
If the DMZ feature is enabled, you must select the PC to be used as the "DMZ
PC".
To use this feature:
Enter an IP address allocated to you by your ISP into the WAN IP address field.
Select the PC to be the DMZ PC for traffic sent to this IP address.
