Some online games and videoconferencing applications are incompatible with NAT. The
WPNT834 router is programmed to recognize some of these applications and to work properly
with them, but there are other applications that may not function well. In some cases, one local
computer can run the application properly if that computer’s IP address is entered as the default in
the Port Forwarding / Port Triggering Menu. If one local computer acts as a game or
videoconferencing host, enter its IP address as the default.
Configuring the WAN Setup Options
The WAN Setup options let you configure a DMZ server, change the MTU size and enable the
wireless router to respond to a Ping on the WAN port. These options are discussed below.
Connecting Automatically, as Required
Normally, this option should be checked to enable it. An Internet connection will be made
automatically after each timeout, whenever Internet-bound traffic is detected. This provides
connection on demand and is potentially cost-saving, in some regions of Europe for example,
where Internet services charge by the minute.
If disabled, you must connect manually, using the “Connection Status” button on the Router Status
screen. This manual connection will stay up all the time without timeouts.
