UPnP Support

UPnP Enabled: Universal Plug and Play (UPnP™) is a set of protocols that allows a PC to automatically discover
other UPnP devices (anything from an internet gateway device to a light switch), retrieve an XML description of
the device and its services, control the device, and subscribe to real-time event notification.
By default, UPnP is enabled on the Motorola Netopia
For Windows XP users, the automatic discovery feature places an icon representing the Motorola Netopia
Gateway automatically in the "My Network Places" folder.
PCs using UPnP can retrieve the Gateway's WAN IP address, and automatically create NAT port maps. This
means that applications that support UPnP, and are used with a UPnP-enabled Motorola Netopia
not need application layer gateway support on the Motorola Netopia
You can disable UPnP, if you are not using any UPnP devices or applications.
You must reboot the Motorola Netopia
