UPnP (Universal Plug and Play)
Selecting UPnP in the “Advanced Setup” screen generates the “UPnP” screen. In
this screen, the Universal Plug and Play option is turned on or off by activating the
appropriate circle.
Universal Plug and Play is a zero-configuration networking protocol that allows
hardware and software (such as Netmeeting) to operate more efficiently. If
Netmeeting is not running properly, activate UPnP.
☞
Note: Activating UPnP presents a slight security risk. After fin-
ishing with the hardware or software using UPnP, Actiontec rec-
ommends deactivating UPnP.
When finished in this screen, click Apply to activate any changes made.
