current connected devices, click Refresh.

4. 5. 3. Address Reservation
You can reserve an IP address for a specific client. When you have specified a reserved
IP address for a PC on the LAN, this PC will always receive the same IP address each
time when it accesses the DHCP server.
1. Visit http://tplinkwifi.net, and log in with the username and password you set for the router.
2. Go to DHCP > Address Reservation.
3. Click Add New and fill in the blanks.

2 ) Enter the IP address (in dotted-decimal notation) which you want to reserve for
the client.
3 ) Leave the status as Enabled.
4 ) Click Save.

4. 6. Forwarding
The router’s NAT (Network Address Translation) feature makes the devices on the LAN
use the same public IP address to communicate in the Internet, which protects the
35

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine

 Chapter 4 

local network by hiding IP addresses of the devices. However, it also brings about the
problem that external hosts cannot initiatively communicate with the specified devices
in the local network.
With the forwarding feature, the router can traverse the isolation of NAT so that clients
on the Internet can reach devices on the LAN and realize some specific functions.
The TP-LINK router includes four forwarding rules. If two or more rules are set, the
priority of implementation from high to low is Virtual Servers, Port Triggering, UPNP and
DMZ.

4. 6. 1. Virtual Servers
When you build up a server in the local network and want to share it on the Internet,
Virtual Servers can realize the service and provide it to Internet users. At the same time
virtual servers can keep the local network safe as other services are still invisible from
the Internet.
Virtual Servers can be used to set up public services in your local network, such as
HTTP, FTP, DNS, POP3/SMTP and Telnet. Different service uses different service port.
Port 80 is used in HTTP service, port 21 in FTP service, port 25 in SMTP service and port
110 in POP3 service. Please verify the service port number before the configuration.
I want to: Share my personal website I’ve built in local network with my
friends through the Internet.
For example, the personal website has been built in my home PC
(192.168.0.100). I hope that my friends on the Internet can visit
my website in some way. My PC is connected to the router with
the WAN IP address 218.18.232.154.

Note:
• It is recommended to keep the default settings of Internal Port and
Protocol if you are not clear about which port and protocol to use.
• If the service you want to use is not in the Common Service Port list, you
can enter the corresponding parameters manually. You should verify the
port number that the service needs.
• You can add multiple virtual server rules if you want to provide several
services in a router. Please note that the Service Port should not be
overlapped.

Done! Users on the Internet can enter http:// WAN IP (in this example:

Note:
• If you have changed the default Service Port, you should use http:// WAN
IP: Service Port to visit the website.
• Some specific service ports are forbidden by the ISP, if you fail to visit the
website, please use another service port.

4. 6. 2. Port Triggering
Port triggering can specify a triggering port and its corresponding external ports. When
a host in the local network initiates a connection to the triggering port, all the external
ports will be opened for subsequent connections. The router can record the IP address
of the host. When the data from the Internet return to the external ports, the router
can forward them to the corresponding host. Port triggering is mainly applied to online
games, VoIPs, video players and common applications including MSN Gaming Zone,
Dialpad, Quick Time 4 players and more.
Follow the steps below to configure the port triggering rules:
1. Visit http://tplinkwifi.net, and log in with the username and password you set for the router.
2. Go to Forwarding > Port Triggering.
3. Click Add New. Select the desired application from the Common Applications list. The trigger
port amd incoming ports will be automatically filled in. The following picture takes application
MSN Gaming Zone as an example.

4. Leave the status as Enabled and click Save.

Note:
• You can add multiple port triggering rules as needed.
• The triggering ports can not be overlapped.
• If the application you need is not listed in the Common Applications list, please enter the parameters
manually. You should verify the incoming ports the application uses first and enter them in Incoming
Ports field. You can input at most 5 groups of ports (or port sections). Every group of ports must be set
apart with “,”. For example, 2000-2038, 2050-2051, 2085, 3010-3030.

4. 6. 3. DMZ
When a PC is set to be a DMZ (Demilitarized Zone) host in the local network, it is totally
exposed to the Internet, which can realize the unlimited bidirectional communication
between internal hosts and external hosts. The DMZ host becomes a virtual server with
all ports opened. When you are not clear about which ports to open in some special
applications, such as IP camera and database software, you can set the PC to be a DMZ
host.
Note:
DMZ is more applicable in the situation that users are not clear about which ports to open. When it 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.

I want to: 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 log in normally but cannot join a team
with other players. To solve this problem, set your PC as a DMZ
host with all ports opened.

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

do that? 192.168.0.100.
2. Visit http://tplinkwifi.net, and log in with the username and
password you set for the router.

DMZ Host IP Address filed.

5. Click Save.
Done! You’ve set your PC to a DMZ host and now you can make a team
to game with other players.

4. 6. 4. UPnP
The UPnP (Universal Plug and Play) protocol allows the 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 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.
Tips:
• UPnP is enabled by default in this router.
• Only the application supporting UPnP protocol can use this feature.
• UPnP feature needs the support of operating system (e.g. Windows Vista/ Windows 7/ Windows 8, etc.
Some of operating system need to install the UPnP components).

For example, when you connect your Xbox to the router which is connected to the Internet
to play online games, UPnP will send request to the router to open the corresponding
ports allowing the following data penetrating the NAT to transmit. Therefore, you can
play Xbox online games without a hitch.

LAN WAN

Xbox Router

If necessary, you can follow the steps to change the status of UPnP.
1. Visit http://tplinkwifi.net, and log in with the username and password you set for the router.
2. Go to Forwarding > UPnP.
3. Click Disable or Enable according to your needs.

Tips:
• Some ISP will register the MAC address of your computer when you access the Internet for the first time
through their Cable modem, if you add a router into your network to share your Internet connection, the ISP will
not accept it as the MAC address is changed, so we need to clone your computer’s MAC address to the router.
• The MAC addresses of a computer in wired connection and wireless connection are different.

• Modify the LAN IP address of the router.

Note:

Most TP-LINK routers use 192.168.0.1/192.168.1.1 as their default LAN IP address, it may conflict with the IP range
of your existent ADSL modem/router. If so, the router is not able to communicate with your modem and cause you
can’t access the Internet. To resolve this problem, we need to change the LAN IP address of the router to avoid
such conflict, for example, 192.168.2.1.

1 ) Visit http://tplinkwifi.net, and log in with the username and password you set for
the router.
2 ) Go to Network > LAN.
