I have a BT Voyager 205 router and cannot play flight simulator games on MSN Game zone site.
Keep getting an error message "DP2 Error problem".

I have tried so far:-
1) Turning off firewall - no sucess
2) Spoke 5 times to the ISP - complete waste of time.
2) Sighting microsoft website for help - they have a posting on the problem but no no solution.

I have been told a) the BT Voyager 205 ADSL Router will not allow you to forward enough ports, to run MSN Game Zone, b)I should try using the DMZ portion of this router if it is available and c) Alternatively I can try switching the router to bridged mode.

What does points a) b) and c) mean and how do i configure my router to get it to work. The help on the router website
does not advise how to undetake changes.
PLEASE HELP :(
