R6300v2 Smart WiFi Router

Note: If you use applications such as multiplayer gaming, peer-to-peer

connections, real-time communications such as instant messaging,

or remote assistance (a feature in Windows XP), you should also

enable Universal Plug and Play (UPnP). See Universal Plug and

Play on page 105.

To configure port triggering, you need to know which inbound ports the application needs,

and the number of the outbound port that will trigger the opening of the inbound ports.

You

can usually determine this information by contacting the publisher of the application or user

groups or news groups.

 To enable port triggering:

1. Select ADV

ANCED > Advanced Setup > Port Forwarding/Port Triggering.

2. Select the Port T

riggering radio button.

3. Clear the Disable Port Triggering check box.

Note: If the Disable Port Triggering check box is selected after you

configure port triggering, port triggering is disabled. However, any

port triggering configuration information you added to the router is

retained even though it is not used.

4. In the Port

Triggering Timeout field, enter a value up to 9999 minutes.

This value controls the inactivity timer for the designated inbound ports. The inbound

ports close when the inactivity time expires.

This timeout is required because the router

cannot detect when the application has terminated.

 To add a port triggering service:

1. Select ADV

ANCED > Advanced Setup > Port Forwarding/Port Triggering.

2. Select the Port T

riggering radio button
