Chapter 5: Configuring the Wireless-N Gigabit Gaming Router
The APPLICATIONS & GAMING Tab - DMZ
Wireless-N Gigabit Gaming Router
The APPLICATIONS & GAMING Tab - DMZ
The DMZ screen allows one local user to be exposed to the Internet for use of a special-purpose service such as
Internet gaming and videoconferencing. DMZ hosting forwards all the ports at the same time to one PC. The Port
Range Forwarding is more secure because it only opens the ports you want to have opened, while DMZ hosting
opens all the ports of one computer, exposing the computer to the Internet.
Any PC whose port is being forwarded must have its DHCP client function disabled and should have a new static
IP address assigned to it because its IP address may change when using the DHCP function.
