Multiple Computers for Internet Gaming

To set up an additional computer to play Age of Empire or Quake III:

Click the button of an unused port in the table.
Select the game again from the Services/Games list.
Change the beginning port number in the Start Port box.
For these games, use the supplied number in the default list and add +1 for each additional computer. For example, if you have 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.
Type the same port number in the End Port box that you typed in the Start Port box.
Type the IP address of the additional computer in the Server IP Address box.
Click Apply.

Some online games and videoconferencing applications are incompatible with NAT. The WPNT834 router is programmed to recognize some of these applications and to work properly with them, but there are other applications that may not function well. In some cases, one local computer can run the application properly if that computer's IP address is entered as the default in the Port Forwarding / Port Triggering Menu. If one local computer acts as a game or videoconferencing host, enter its IP address as the default.
