Default DMZ Server. This feature is sometimes helpful when you are playing online
games or videoconferencing. Be careful when using this feature because it makes the
firewall security less effective. See the following section,
•
Respond to Ping on Internet Port. If you want the router to respond to a ping from
the Internet, select this check box. Use this setting only as a diagnostic tool because it
allows your router to be discovered. Do not select this check box unless you have a
