mn-700 firewall

I just bought a mn-700 802.11G router... and i want to
host warcraft games... how do i open up that port? do i
port foreward it?

Yes, you'll need to forward the port(s) required specifically by the game to
the computer you're using. Here's a Knowledge Base article:
http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;en-us;240429 The thing to
remember is you have an IP from your Internet Service Provider, and that
only reaches as far as the MN-700. You then need to tell the base station
to forward it to your game machine, because it has an IP address unique to
your LAN. Check with the game website or documentation to determine which
port(s) you need open.
