enabling/disabling UPnP
UPnP (Universal Plug-and-Play) is yet another advanced feature offered
by your Belkin Router� It is a technology that offers seamless operation
of voice messaging, video messaging, games, and other applications
that are UPnP-compliant� Some applications require the Router’s firewall
to be configured in a specific way to operate properly� This usually
requires opening TCP and UDP ports, and in some instances, setting
trigger ports� An application that is UPnP-compliant has the ability to
communicate with the Router, basically “telling” the Router which way
it needs the firewall configured� The Router ships with the UPnP feature
disabled� If you are using any applications that are UPnP-compliant, and
wish to take advantage of the UPnP features, you can enable the UPnP
feature� Simply select “Enable” in the “UPnP Enabling” section of the
“Utilities” page� Click “Apply Changes” to save the change�
enabling/disabling auto firmware Update
This innovation provides the Router with the built-in capability to
automatically check for a new version of firmware and alert you that
the new firmware is available� When you log into the Router’s advanced
interface, the Router will perform a check to see if new firmware is
available� If so, you will be notified� You can choose to download the
new version or ignore it�
