To enable Universal Plug-N-Play:
1. Launch a web browser from a computer or mobile device that is connected to the network.
2. Enter http://www.routerlogin.net.
A login window opens.
3. Enter the router user name and password.
The user name is admin.The default password is password. The user name and password are
case-sensitive.
The BASIC Home page displays.
4. Select ADVANCED > Advanced Setup > UPnP.
The UPnP page displays.
5. Select the Turn UPnP On check box.
By default, this check box is selected. UPnP for automatic device configuration can be enabled or
disabled. If the Turn UPnP On check box is cleared, the router does not allow any device to automatically
control router resources, such as port forwarding.
6. Type the advertisement period in minutes.
The advertisement period specifies how often the router broadcasts its UPnP information.This value
can range from 1 to 1440 minutes. The default period is 30 minutes. Shorter durations ensure that
control points receive current device status at the expense of more network traffic. Longer durations
can compromise the freshness of the device status but can significantly reduce network traffic.
7. Type the advertisement time to live in hops.
The time to live for the advertisement is measured in hops (steps) for each UPnP packet sent. Hops
are the steps a packet takes between routers.The number of hops can range from 1 to 255.The default
value for the advertisement time to live is 4 hops, which should be fine for most home networks. If you
notice that some devices are not being updated or reached correctly, it might be necessary to increase
this value.
8. Click the Apply button.
The UPnP Portmap Table displays the IP address of each UPnP device that is accessing the router
and which ports (internal and external) that device opened.The UPnP Portmap Table also displays
what type of port is open and whether that port is still active for each IP address.
To refresh the information in the UPnP Portmap Table, click the Refresh button.
