Customizing Your Network Settings

5-8

The default DMZ server feature is helpful when you are using some online games and 
videoconferencing applications that are incompatible with Network Address Translation (NAT). 
The router is programmed to recognize some of these applications and to work correctly with 
them, but there are other applications that might not function well. In some cases, one local 
computer can run the application correctly if that computer’s IP address is entered as the default 
DMZ server.

Incoming traffic from the Internet is usually discarded by the router unless the traffic is a response 
to one of your local computers or a service that you have configured in the Port Forwarding/Port 
Triggering screen. Instead of discarding this traffic, you can have it forwarded to one computer on 
your network. This computer is called the default DMZ server.

The WAN Setup screen lets you configure a default DMZ server.

To assign a computer or server to be a default DMZ server: 

1. In the last Default DMZ Server field, type the last digit of the IP address for that computer. 

To remove the default DMZ server, enter 0 (zero).

2. Select the Default DMZ Server check box, and click Apply.

MTU Size (in bytes)

The normal MTU (Maximum Transmit Unit) value for most Ethernet networks 
is 1500 bytes, or 1492 Bytes for PPPoE connections. For some ISPs you 
might need to reduce the MTU. This is rarely required, and should not be done 
unless you are sure it is necessary for your ISP connection. See 

NAT Filtering

Network Address Translation (NAT) determines how the router processes 
inbound traffic. Secured NAT provides a secured firewall to protect the 
computers on the LAN from attacks from the Internet, but might prevent some 
Internet games, point-to-point applications, or multimedia applications from 
functioning. Open NAT provides a much less secured firewall, but allows 
almost all Internet applications to function. 

Warning: DMZ servers pose a security risk. A computer designated as the default DMZ 

server loses much of the protection of the firewall, and is exposed to exploits 
from the Internet. If compromised, the DMZ server computer can be used to 
attack other computers on your network.
