Or maybe some region is not listed?
If so, could I got other regions and setup into my router?
Simply, I need a solution make router to replace PC client due to we will use some Smart TV or Set-Top Box.

Is it possible to have pictures bigger than that? I tried to configure my router but I can’t. Excuseme but I think the guide is not clear enough. :X Also I can’t input value like “192.168.88.2-192.168.88.254” I can write only one value not one range. Maybe the problem is I am not expert enough but i really can’t do it!
