7. Type the advertisement time to live in hops.
The time to live for the advertisement is measured in hops (steps) for each UPnP
packet sent. Hops are the steps a packet takes between routers. The number of hops
can range from 1 to 255. The default value for the advertisement time to live is 4
hops, which should be fine for most home networks. If you notice that some devices
are not being updated or reached correctly, it might be necessary to increase this
value.
8. Click the Apply button.
The UPnP Portmap Table displays the IP address of each UPnP device that is accessing
the router and which ports (internal and external) that device opened. The UPnP
Portmap Table also displays what type of port is open and whether that port is still
active for each IP address.

Set up a bridge for a port group or VLAN tag
group
Some devices, such as an IPTV, cannot function behind the router's Network Address
Translation (NAT) service or firewall. Based on what your Internet service provider (ISP)
requires, for the device to connect to the ISP's network directly, you can enable the
bridge between the device and the router's Internet port or add new VLAN tag groups
to the bridge.
Note: If your ISP provides directions on how to set up a bridge for IPTV and Internet
service, follow those directions.
Note: This feature is only supported if the router is in router mode.
Set up a bridge for a port group
If the devices that are connected to the router's Ethernet LAN port include an IPTV
device, your ISP might require you to set up a bridge for a port group for the router's
Internet interface.
A bridge with a port group prevents packets that are sent between the IPTV device and
the router's Internet port from being processed through the router's Network Address
Translation (NAT) service.
