Make Xbox Online Games Run Smoothly by UPnP

UPnP (Universal Plug and Play) protocol allows the applications or host devices to automatically find the front-end NAT
device and send request to it to open the corresponding ports. With UPnP enabled, the applications or host devices in
both sides of NAT device can freely communicate with each other, thus realizing the seamless connection of the
network. You may need to enable the UPnP if you want to use applications for multiplayer gaming, peer-to-peer
connections, real-time communication (such as VoIP or telephone conference) or remote assistance, etc.
Note:
1. Only the application supporting UPnP protocol can use this feature.
2. UPnP feature needs the support of operating system (e.g. Windows Vista/ Windows 7/ Windows 8, etc. Some of operating
system need to install the UPnP components).
For example: When you connect your Xbox to the router which has connected to the Internet to play online games, UPnP will
send request to the router to open the corresponding ports allowing the following data penetrating the NAT to transmit.
Therefore, you can play Xbox online games without a hitch.
