Can't adjust DMZ

Hello,

I'm new to the dream pi scene. I recently found out that my inability to accept match requests on WSB 2k2 had to do with my "DMZ" being disabled. Unfortunately, I have the technical ability of an old man and was unable to change these settings in my router.

Furthermore, a quick Google search showed that since I am using an Optimum Smart Router there is no way to enable this function as Optimum only gives me access to my routers basic settings.

So here are my two questions,:

Is there anything that can be done to circumvent this DMZ issue?

If not, what games can I actually play online with out fixing this issue? So far I have been able to play Quake.

Please advise

Unfortunately, no. The Basic settings they offer are just about password configuration :(

Might be able to call your ISPs customer support to help with the issue.

Yeah, been bounced around a few times. I'm pretty sure they don't know what enabling the DMZ means. Still I'll keep at it.

I'm not seeing much online other than router.optimum.net logs in to it. Can you provide any screen shots?
