Hi,
I have a D-Link DI624 router and recently installed windows vista. However, I can't get upnp working. I tried to help a friend (who use winxp) with remote assistance, but no go...no ports were mapped on the router and no connection achieved. I also have tried uTorrent and tried it's uPnP mode, but it can't assign any ports. So how come it doesn't work in Vista when it worked fine in XP? Any idea? Thanks SveinT |

what firmware are you using? many people with issues find that using
any version of firmware listed as compatible on the Xbox site will work OK but other, newer versions have issues.

Thanks for your answer.
I tried to downgrade to an older version (2.54) (not specifically listed on the xbox live site though, having a hard time to get hold of those). but things are still not working. That said, I tried an uPNP status program which allowed me to manually configure a port, but still not working with remote assistance and uTorrent (VPN isn't working either, but that could be a totally different issue). I find it weird that it's not working seeing as it worked under XP. I guess I can look some more for an older firmware, but they were unstable last time I tried them.

have you tried resetting the router to factory defaults?
can you list what else is on your network?
