Hi! My problem is that whenever I try to connect and play with someone over the Internet, I get an error code. I Googled it and followed the instructions listed on Nintendo's website. I had to go in settings on my 3DS and type in the IP address and other things that were on my computer. I did all of that, but then it said I had to enable my DMZ. I wasn't sure what that meant so I Googled it and people say it's dangerous because it leaves your network vulnerable to hackers. So I tried port forwarding, which is another, less dangerous way but that didn't work either.
Here is the link that I used for help: http://en-americas-support.nintendo.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/12471/p/430.
It says to "forward UDP ports one through 65535". The options I have are "Inbound port" and "Private port", so I put one number in each one. It didn't give me a "through" option. I have a Belkin router.
Does anyone know how to fix this or any other solutions that could work?? It's just so frustrating because I can't go to anyone's town or have anyone visit. :/ Thanks!!
