Trust me mate i made my DMZ my PS3 ip and im on my pc typing this right now. after you put it in you will still be bale to browse the internet and etc with your laptop and pc's or whatever

To be more acurate. DMZ puts whatever piece of hardware(ip addy) outside the protection of your routers firewall. This is a bad thing . Unless you know what your doing with DMZ do not use it. It leaves your Hardware(ip addy) open to attack from hackers and trust me they can do alot more than nerf your harddrive. Just ask Microsoft They had an attempted hack on Live. dont know how it all panned out
