LAN IP

Address

Enter the IP address that you specified on

the DNS & DHCP Server page.

WAN IP

Address

If you only want to let certain people

have access to your computer, you can

do this by entering their computers’ WAN

IP (Internet) addresses here. Each

computer that you would like to give access

to should be entered on a separate line,

along with the other information (LAN IP
Address, Protocol, and Ports) from the first

line.

Protocol

If you are playing Dark Reign 2, Delta

Force 1 or 2, Diablo, Half Life, Quake

II, or Quake III on your computer, select

your game from the list.
Otherwise, if you have obtained your
protocol (udp
or tcp) and port number(s)

from your game instructions, select the

protocol from the list.
If you do not know your protocol or port

number(s), you need to set up your

computer as a DMZ (Demilitarized Zone)

by selecting all from the Protocol list. This

will open up all ports on the computer to all
communication over the Internet.
Warning: Setting up a DMZ removes the

protection provided by the ADSL

Ethernet’s firewall. We therefore

recommend that a DMZ be used only when

necessary, and that you turn it off when you

are not playing a game and back on when

you want to play. See Turning the Filter
On and Off
, page 27.
