PCs have enough exposed services that there’s a real risk of attack if those ports aren’t blocked (though admittedly RCEs of that nature are getting increasingly rare), however Playstation consoles have very little exposed since they are locked down devices. Setting dmz to a ps3/4/vita should not be much of a risk.”Īgreed. “Actually it would be a big risk if dmz was set to a computer. This worked for me greatly, I had 7.2mb/s before, and now I have 14.9mb/s.
So sure, your opening it right up so i will most probably go faster, but depending on the rest of your network, that ps3 isnt safe from me…ĮDIT: also if you have multiple consoles this wont workĬhoose WiFi or LAN, depending if you use a cable or notĬhoose an internet connection (if you have a password, fill it in) Problem is in these setups that you describe, there is no DMZ server, just a PS3 in its place. This an extreme security risk and is why dmz’s are used to catcah all “other” traffic and forward it to a server(the DMZ’d IP) that is isolated from the rest of your network. “DMZing” an ip address opens ALL ports that DONT have a current portforward rule. Do not apply this speed improvement if you have concerns for the security of your network, or in general if you don’t know what you are doing.
Important note: “DMZ” comes with implicit security limitations. You will need a computer and the credentials for your router. In this tutorial, I will show you how to speed up your internet connection. I am leaving this article here because I hate it when websites just “remove” an article as if it never existed but please follow this guide at your own risk. Update: as you can see in the comments section below there are strong concerns about the related security issues and actual usefulness of this technique to improve your internet speed.
