Congure the Router in Hotspot Router Mode
• If the service you want to use is not in the Common Service Port list, you can enter
the corresponding parameters manually. You should verify the port number that
the service needs.
• You can add multiple virtual server rules if you want to provide several services in
a router. Please note that the Service Port should not be overlapped.
Users in the Internet can enter http:// WAN IP (in this example:
http://218.18.232.154) to visit your personal website.
Note:
If you have changed the default Service Port, you should use http://WAN IP: Service
Port to visit the website.
5. 6. 2. Port Triggering
Port triggering can specify a triggering port and its corresponding external ports.
When a host on the local network initiates a connection to the triggering port, all the
external ports will be opened for subsequent connections. The router can record the IP
address of the host. When the data from the Internet return to the external ports, the
router can forward them to the corresponding host. Port triggering is mainly applied
to online games, VoIPs, video players and common applications include MSN Gaming
Zone, Dialpad and Quick Time 4 players, etc.
Follow the steps below to configure the port triggering rules:
1. Visit http://tplinkwifi.net, and log in with the username and password you set for
the router.
2. Go to Advanced > Forwarding > Port Triggering.
3. Click Add New. Select the desired application from the Common Applications list.
The trigger port and incoming ports will be automatically filled in. The following
picture takes application MSN Gaming Zone as an example.
4. Leave the status as Enabled and click Save.
Done!
