3.Enter the user name and password for the modem router.

The user name is admin. The default password is password. The user name and password are case-sensitive.

4.Click the OK button.

The BASIC Home screen displays.

5.Select ADVANCED > Advanced Setup > Port Forwarding / Port Triggering. The Port Forwarding / Port Triggering screen displays.

6.Select the Port Triggering radio button. The port triggering settings display.

7.In the Port Triggering Time-outfield, enter a value up to 9999 minutes. The default setting is 20 minutes.

8.Click the Apply button. Your settings are saved.
