ukbobboy01 is on the spot. Although your device has UPnP, not all devices have a good implementation of UPnP. Since there's more than one definition of it (duh), it doesn't always work well. So can you tell us what brand & model of device(s) you're connecting through?

UPnP is a little like beta & vhs or dvd HD where there's 2 or more camps heading in slightly different ways.

My device is a D-Link DI-524

The strange thing is, like I said in my original post. LW works fine on my laptop, but not on my desktop. Could this possibly be cuz the router is hardwired into my desktop? And my laptop is wireless? Also, after I set the rules on the laptop, LW isn't listed under Internet Access Control but LW indicates a firewall is detected


and ukbobboy01 ummmmmmmm I think maybe you need to read your docs cuz looks like you are working without a firewall. I really don't think it is suppose to work the way you believe it does
