RTA220:

UPnP did not work out of the box for me. Perhaps Dynalink are now shipping
them with UPnP supporting firmware. Dynalink emailed me a firmware they are
currently testing so that I could get the UPnP feature to work.

The router is now spamming my pc upnp data. Also, it wont let you set
non-matching interneral/external pinhole ports when configuring it via the
IGD properties. You can of course via the webconfig with no problems.

Before getting UPnP working MSN would not do file transfers. It does now.
Voice and video conversations fail, however.

You know when you have successfully got UPnP working when windows xp tells
you it's detected new hardware, and the device will appear in My Network
Places. Only winxp (+ .Net, afaik) does upnp.
