Hi Duane,
Th OS of the machine is Windows XP Pro. I did not enabled any software
Firewall in the router but i think it comes with Zone Alarm. I'm doing this
research for a friend. The only thing I did when I installed the router is
plug it in the network so that they can share a cable connection to the
internet. I left all the Default configurations in the router, I didn't
make any changes.

Since the ISP doesn't provide a Static IP(It's is kind of static but if you
shut down the cable modem, you could receive anathor IP), I don't know if
the DMZ will work.

thank's

Serge
