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� 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� If you
are using any applications that are UPnP-compliant, and wish to take
advantage of the UPnP features, do not worry, this Router ships with
the UPnP feature enabled as default setting� If you want to disable
the UPnP feature, simply select “Disable” in the “UPnP Enabling/
Disabling” 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 Web-
Based Advanced User 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� The Router ships with this
feature enabled� If you want to disable it, select “Disable” and click
“Apply Changes”�
