Advanced Configuration

This chapter describes how to configure the advanced features of your DG834GT 108 Mbps Super
Wireless ADSL Router.

Configuring Advanced Security

The DG834GT 108 Mbps Super Wireless ADSL Router provides a variety of advanced features,
such as:

Setting up a Demilitarized Zone (DMZ) Server

Connecting Automatically, as Required

Disabling Port Scan and DOS Protection

Responding to a Ping on the Internet WAN Port

MTU Size

Flexibility on configuring your LAN TCP/IP settings

Using the Router as a DHCP Server

Configuring Dynamic DNS

Configuring Static Routes

These features are discussed below.

Setting Up A Default DMZ Server

The Default DMZ Server feature is helpful when using some online games and videoconferencing
applications that are incompatible with NAT. The 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 DMZ Server.
