UPnP Network Devices

Decided to finish up a page on securing your home wireless router (DGL-4500). One of the items I wanted to highlight though was the use of UPnP settings in your router. This is not a good thing for the security conscious as it can allow a program to poke an unauthenticated hole in your rules… Take a look at this article on one example telling you how to do it. It shows you some specifics about doing it in Windows.
