i need to know how to allow all traffic for all udp destinations...I do not see a place to do this just boxes to enter port numbers

[jberek]

Why don't you just add a rule that allow port 1 through 65535 (I think that is the highest). Although, that doesn't sound like a super safe idea, but what do I know?

Wikipedia has a listing of udp and tcp ports.
Easy enough to find with a udp ports Google search.

thanks guys i got the ports now i just need to know how to detup gamefuel and add a dhcp setting

[Elmar329]

DHCP Reservation is pretty easy. Turn on what you the reservation for (Wii, Xbox, etc.)
Open up the Router and Look on the Basic Tab under Network Settings.
Drop down to where it says Add DHCP Reservation.
Check Enable.  Pick what you want to have the reserved address from the drop down menu.
With it cut on, it should fill in the IP Address and MAC address info.
Hit Save and you should be done.

A general Gamefuel set up would be:
Advanced Tab, Gamefuel setting
Check enable.
Name the Rule.
Set a priority 1 is the highest, 255 is the lowest.
Protocol set to BOTH.
Local IP Range is what you have the DHCP Reservation set to.
(i.e. 192.168.0.199 - 192.168.0.199)
Remote IP Range should be set to 0.0.0.0 - 255.255.255.255 
Port Range 1 to 65535

This should tell you a little more about setting up the gamefuel rule. I copied the post from where I learn about how to set it up. The full thread is on this forum under the heading "Gamefuel"

The remote IP will be anybody in theory in your example so the range of 0.0.0.0-255.255.255.255 is appropriate.  sometimes you will have more specific endpoints in mind (like the IP of your favorite FTP server), then you would need a more specific remote IP.


"
Local IP Range:  The PC or network that should receive the prioritization.  This can be a single IP if you need 1 PC to have priority or can be your entire network if you are more interested in traffic type for instance.

Local Port Range:  This will be 0-65535 in all practical examples.

Remote IP Range:  See Above.  This will usually be 0.0.0.0-255.255.255.255 as you usually do not know exactly who will be receiving your prioritized traffic.  However if you had a favorite FTP server or some scenario like that you could put something more specific here.

Remote Port Range:  The destination port, this is the port that you be given if your application lists that it uses ports x,y,z TCP and a-c UDP for outgoing traffic.

I hope this helps. "

I thought I would add the FAQ link for Gamefuel from the support section.

im having trouble with dhcp it keeps saying value must be within the ip range

[Reinvented]

Attached is the DHCP section of the router, to setup reservations and what not.  Take note of the second section, where it says DHCP range.  Make sure it's starting at like 100, and ending at like 20, or 50 or however many clients you expect to have.

Then below that, in the next section is the area where you can reserve an address for a specific device.  This allows for the router to assign that specific IP to that device every time it turns on, etc.

Hopefully that helps.

so in ip port range i type in the ports i need used?

[gamejockey]

and how do i seperate the tcp and udp ports if i am correct that the remote port range is where i input the open ports i want

[HelenJames]

Something alike was discussed on the Yahoo! Answers last week, i can share a link if you want some

[Trikein]

Just FYI..that was a post from like two years ago. ::grin:: But yea, port forwarding everything inbound and outbound to one destination is a bad idea, since that would block access to all traffic to all other PC's on your network. Including HTML, aka, internet.
