Hi guys, I am having trouble with Counter-Strike. Everytime I try to update the internet servers list just before it finished getting all the server, my internet connection get dropped. Then I would have to restart the computer or reset the DSL modem. I figured that it was the hardware firewall built in my D-Link Router/4-port Switch (DI-704). The only way to fix the problem with Counter-Strike problem is to put my computer's IP in DMZ (Demilitarized Zone which get no Firewall protection). The thing is I only get to put 1 IP address under DMZ list. I have 3 computers hooked up to the D-Link Router/4-port Switch so with my DMZ method, I can fix Counter-Strike problem on one computer and the other 2 computers still have the Update servers list problem in Counter-Strike. Is there a better way to fix this problem?
 
Here is how I set up my DSL network:
DSL modem > D-Link Router/4-port Switch > 3 computers
 
1 Computer is running Win2k Server Edition and other 2 running Win98 SE
