If your device is a console, filtering mode is enabled for the device, which means
that the router blocks connections outside your distance radius to force your
device to use a host or server inside your radius. We recommend this setting for
console games.
If your device is a not console, filtering mode is disabled for the device, which
means that the router does not block connections outside of your distance radius.
We recommend this setting for most computer games that don't require filtering.
f. Either override the suggested filter mode or click the CONTINUE button.
Your device is added.
g. Click the FINISH button.
The Add Device window closes.
