    AC87U - Port Forwarding, Is a DMZ Required

    To Double NAT or Not - Advice

    Yes, I totally appreciate your advice. Sadly, I just found out that my ISP has disabled the DMZ feature of the router 1. SO the only option provided is bridged mode. Not the worse case scenario, perhaps it is an excuse to upgrade my router to one with soem more modern wi-fi management tools...
