Are there specific MK8 ports to open? When I enable DMZ in the DD-WRT firmware, my Wii U can't go online anymore...

I already opened some ports for CoD, Blacklist and ´Wii Sports Club. Maybe MK8 uses the same ports as WSC.

EDIT: Ah, DMZ works now, I had to disable the opened ports. Can DMZ cause security issues?

Is all this really necessary? I am not saying it is not but do you have to be a IT guru to play a simple game these days?

I have played many online games on every console and PC and never had to do any of this stuff to get it to work properly.
