3. On the Famous Server List field, select the type of service you
want to access.
4. On the Famous Game List field, select the popular game that
you want to access. This item lists the port required for your
selected popular online game to work properly.
5. On the Port Forwarding List table, key in the following
information:
• Service Name : Enter a service name.
• Port Range : If you want to specify a Port Range for clients
on the same network, enter the Service Name, the Port
Range (e.g. 10200:10300), the LAN IP address, and leave the
Local Port empty. Port range accepts various formats such
as Port Range (300:350), individual ports (566,789) or Mix
(1015:1024,3021).
NOTES:
• When your network’s firewall is disabled and you set 80 as the
HTTP server’s port range for your WAN setup, then your http
server/web server would be in conflict with the router’s web user
interface.
• A network makes use of ports in order to exchange data, with
each port assigned a port number and a specific task. For
example, port 80 is used for HTTP. A specific port can only be used
by one application or service at a time. Hence, two PCs attempting
to access data through the same port at the same time would fail.
For example, you cannot set up Port Forwarding for port 100 for
two PCs at the same time.
• Local IP : Key in the client’s LAN IP address.
NOTE : Use a static IP address for the local client to make port
forwarding work properly. Refer to section 4.4 LAN for information.
