I want to use PCanywhere to connect to the PC behind the router. But I
seem to be to stupid to set the Firewall right. I can set the PC to
"DMZ" and reach it perfectly well, but there must be a way to configure
the Firewall, right? Please help, this drives me crazy! ;-)

Turn OFF the stupid DMZ. That's not the correct way to do it. In
effect, it disables all the router security to that machine and opens
ALL the IP ports. Do not use the DMZ.

PCAnywhere 9 thru 12 use ports 5631 (TCP) and 5632 (UDP) for incoming
traffic. These can be changed, so please make sure your PCAnywhere is
using the default ports.

Specific instructions for the DI-524:

Just copy the setup. Make sure that your client computer has either a
static IP address, or that you have setup a "reserved" DHCP address.
See the section called "static DHCP" in your router like:
