4.3.3 Configure UPnP

Universal Plug and Play(UPnP) is an architecture to enable pervasive peer-to-peer network connectivity between PCs, intelligent devices and appliances when UPnP is supported. UPnP works on TCP/IP network to enable UPnP devices to connect and access to each other, very well adopted in home networking environment.

„UPnP : By default, it’s “Disable”. Select “Enable” or “Disable” of UPnP Service. Click Save button to save changes and click Reboot button to activate changes

For UPnP to work in Windows XP, the “APO1000” or “APO1010” must be available in “My Network Places”.

If these devices are not available, you should verify that the correct components and services are loaded in Windows XP. Please refer to Appendix D. Using UPnP on Windows XP
