Improve Network Connections with Universal Plug and 
Play
Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) helps devices, such as Internet applian\
ces and computers, 
access the network and connect to other devices as needed. UPnP devices \
can 
automatically discover the services from other registered UPnP devices o\
n the network.
If you use applications such as multiplayer gaming, peer-to-peer connect\
ions, or real-time 
communications such as instant messaging or remote assistance (a featur\
e in Windows XP), 
enable UPnP

.

forwarding.
6.  T
ype the advertisement period in minutes.
The advertisement period specifies how often the  router broadcasts its UPnP information. 
This value can range from 1 to 1440 minutes. 
 The default period is 30 minutes. Shorter 
durations ensure that control points have current device status at the e\
xpense of more 
network traffic. Longer durations can compromise the freshness of the device status,\
 but 
can significantly reduce network traffic.
7.  T
ype the advertisement time to live in hops.
The time to live for the advertisement is measured in hops (steps) for\
 each UPnP packet sent. Hops are the steps a packet takes between routers. 
 The number of hops can range 
from 1 to 255. The default value for the advertisement time to live is 4 hops, which sh\
ould 
be fine for most home networks. If you notice that some devices are not \
being updated or 
reached correctly, it might be necessary to increase this value.
