Improve Network Connections with Universal Plug and
Play
Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) helps devices, such as Internet appliances and computers,
access the network and connect to other devices as needed. UPnP devices can
automatically discover the services from other registered UPnP devices on the network.
If you use applications such as multiplayer gaming, peer-to-peer connections, or real-time
communications such as instant messaging or remote assistance (a feature in Windows XP),
enable UPnP.
To enable Universal Plug and Play:
1.
Launch an Internet browser from a computer or wireless device that is connected to the
network.
2.
Type
http:/192.168.254.254
.
A login window opens.
3.
Enter the user name and password.
The user name is
admin
. The default password is
admin
. The user name and password
are case-sensitive.
The Main page displays.
