Can't work with Firwall Software Enabling firewall applications on your PC may cause UPnP can not work properly. It is because these kind of applications will block network ports accessing. ( ex, PC-cillin firewall... ) 2. Security Considerations Activating UPnP functions on your network may raise some security exposures, and these risks should be considered before activating UPnP. Some Microsoft operating systems have found out UPnP weaknesses and hence you need to ensure that you have applied the latest service packs and patches. Non-privileged users can control some router functions, including removing and adding port mappings. UPnP dynamically adds port mappings on behalf of some UPnP-aware applications. When the applications terminates abnornmally, these mappings may not be removed. [New Functions]: 1. MPPE for VPN PPTP. 2. VPN default route. 3. VPN aloways-on function. 4.
