Re: Common Thread for router problems

Some more info....

90% of you out there dont have a clue as to what PnP is or does and how it effects your network.

»www.coternet.com/resource/articl···upnp.htm

Many vendors - including Linksys - have not embraced UPnP due to its inherent security and stability issues. The spec allows each individual vendor to make extenstions which dont necessarily play together either!!There is little or no security in UPnP as well - ANY application - web based ort local - can reconfigure your router - turn on or off port forwarding, effect routes, DNS servers, you name it...

Kind of like leaving the keys in the car and wondering why the gas tank is sometimes empty......
