Windows XP (Home) SP3 Hi, can anyone give me a step-by-step to turn on UPnP? TIA How ironic! one MS tool (the connecticty ela. tool) gripes about upnp being turned off, while another MS product has turned it off(one care), I find some humor in that. If you are an average home user belive me you don't need to turn on upnp, you most likely won't need it and the firewall was right in turnning it off. Read some info at the link below. This is old info but it is still valid. https://www.grc.com/unpnp/unpnp.htm -- Mike Pawlak |

Just thought you might like to know. Later, Ray Parrish -- http://www.rayslinks.com/ Web index of human reviewed links. http://www.writingsoftheschizophrenic.com My poetry in web pages |
