ROUTING Page – Commonly Used Configuration Options
None of the configuration options on the ROUTING Page typically require any adjustment
from factory defaults, to support most typical uses of the WR850 as a wired/wireless router.
Therefore, none of the configuration options on the ROUTING Page are highlighted in
white. ROUTING Page configuration options are provided primarily for advanced users.

destination port range, on the LAN side of the WR850, as well.

other special service, on your local network.

one or more of them when desired, using the Enabled checkbox at
the end of each row.
