CONFIGURING UNIVERSAL PLUG AND PLAY (UPnP) Universal Plug and Play or UPnP is a networking architecture that provides compatibility among computers, networking equipment, software and peripherals. With UPnP, connected devices communicate their features to the network at a times interval so other devices can access those features. Follow the steps below to configure UPnP support: 1.
IP address for each computer. The ENR1504 router can act as a DHCP server, so it can provide IP addresses to computers on your network. By default, the DHCP server function is enabled. In most cases, the default settings will serve your network just fine.

Open a browser window and login to the router. 5. Click Basic Configuration, then DHCP Server. This displays the DHCP Server screen (see Figure 24).
both the PC and the router are using the same subnet mask. ENABLING DYNAMIC DNS A Domain Name System (DNS) server maintains a list of Internet addresses and URLs (web addresses) and the IP address of the computer that maintains the website. Usually, the IP address for the host computer must be static.
NOTE: If the router does not prompt you to reboot it at the end of the last configuration step, you must use the reboot command. See Rebooting the Router on page 77. EDITING THE ROUTING TABLE To provide Internet access, the router must be able to contact all the PCs on your network.
7. Under the Interface field, select whether the gateway is attached to the router’s WAN port or one of the LAN ports. If the ENR1504 is connected to the Internet then it should not need a route to the WAN so LAN should almost always be set.
