NAT Forwarding

Note:

When DMZ is enabled, the DMZ host is totally exposed to the internet, which may bring some potential safety hazards. If

DMZ is not in use, please disable it in time.

Make the home PC join the internet online game without port

restriction.

For example, due to some port restriction, when playing the

online games, you can login normally but cannot join a team with

other players. To solve this problem, set your PC as a DMZ host

with all ports open.

1. Assign a static IP address to your PC, for example

192.168.0.100.

2. Visit

http://tplinkwifi.net, and log in with your TP-Link ID or

the password you set for the router.

3. Go to

Advanced > NAT Forwarding > DMZ and select Enable

DMZ

4. Enter the IP address 192.168.0.100 in the

DMZ Host IP

Address

filed.

5. Click Save.

The configuration is completed. You’ve set your PC to a DMZ

host and now you can make a team to game with other players.

11. 4. Make Xbox Online Games Run Smoothly by

UPnP

The UPnP (Universal Plug and Play) protocol allows applications or host devices

to automatically find the front-end NAT device and send request to it to open the

corresponding ports. With UPnP enabled, the applications or host devices on the

local network and the internet can freely communicate with each other thus realizing

the seamless connection of the network. You may need to enable the UPnP if you

want to use applications for multiplayer gaming, peer-to-peer connections, real-time

communication (such as VoIP or telephone conference) or remote assistance, etc.
