UPnP (Universal Plug and Play)

Selecting UPnP in the “Advanced Setup” screen generates the “UPnP” screen. In this screen, the Universal Plug and Play option is turned on or off by activating the appropriate circle.

Universal Plug and Play is a zero-configuration networking protocol that allows hardware and software (such as Netmeeting) to operate more efficiently. If Netmeeting is not running properly, activate UPnP.

☞Note: Activating UPnP presents a slight security risk. After finishing with the hardware or software using UPnP, we recom- mend deactivating UPnP.

When finished in this screen, click Apply to activate any changes made.

USB Port Detection

Selecting USB Port Detection in the “Advanced Setup” screen generates the “USB Port Detection” screen. In this screen, the USB port detection option is turned on or off by activating the appropriate circle (default is “Off”). If this option is turned on, the USB port will be disabled if an Ethernet cable is plugged into the Modem first, or the Ethernet port will be disabled if the a USB cable is plugged into the Modem first. If this option is turned on when both an Ethernet and a USB cable are plugged into the Modem, the USB port will be disabled.

When finished in this screen, click Apply to activate any changes made.
