If you enable this option, you are causing the router not to
respond to ping commands to the public WAN IP address of
the router. Pinging public WAN IP addresses is a common
method used by hackers to test whether your WAN IP address
is valid.
Select a firewall rule that controls access as needed for ping
commands. If you do not see the firewall rule you need in the
list of firewall rules, go to the Advanced -> Firewalls page and
create a new firewall rule.
Select to enable or disable UPnP™ (Universal Plug & Play).
If you are experiencing difficulties when playing online games
or even certain applications that use voice data, you may need
to enable Gaming Mode for these applications to work correctly.
When not playing games or using these voice applications, it
is recommended that Gaming Mode be disabled.
