allows UPnP-enabled client computers, such as Windows XP, to discover and
configure the Router. One of most common use of UPnP on the router is to open ports
to allow application-specific data to be forwarded through the router for various
Internet services or gaming applications. The router detection and the router
configuration process can be carried out automatically by the UPnP-enabled client
applications such as MSN Messenger so you won't have to do it manually. Click to
select Enable UPnP function to enable this service.
