Change the beginning port number in the Start Port box.
For these games, use the supplied number in the default listing and add +1 for each additional
computer. For example, if you've already configured one computer to play Hexen II (using
port 26900), the second computer's port number would be 26901, and the third computer
would be 26902.

What Does UPnP Support Do for Me?
With the FVS318 Broadband ProSafe VPN Firewall , you can enable Microsoft UPnP for Network
Address Translation (NAT) traversal. The scenarios that UPnP-enabled NAT traversal helps ensure
include: multi-player gaming, peer-to-peer connections, real time communications, and remote as-
sistance
NAT is a standard used to allow multiple computers or devices on a private network using private
address ranges such as 10.0.x.x, 192.168.x.x, 172.x.x.x to share a single IP address. NAT is used in
gateway devices such as FVS318 VPN Firewall that form the boundary between the public
Internet and the private LAN. As IP packets from the private LAN traverse the gateway, NAT
translates a private IP address and port number to a public IP address and port number, tracking
those translations to keep individual sessions intact.

NAT can interfere with many of the new PC and home networking experiences, such as
multi-player games, real time communications, and other peer-to-peer services, that people
increasingly want to use in their homes or small businesses. These applications will not work if
they a use private address on the public Internet or require simultaneous use of the same port
number. Applications must use a public address, and, for each session, a unique port number.
UPnP NAT Traversal can automatically solve many of the problems that NAT imposes on
applications.
