UPnP
UPnP in eMule's context is a way to open/forward ports on UPnP compatible routers (or modems with integrated routers). This gives an high-id without having to open ports manually.
This feature is very useful in combination with Randomize Ports & ICS (Internet Connection Sharing) support.
It was first seen in emulEspaña by MoNKi and is available nowadays in a lot of Morph based mods.
UPnP Requirements
In order to use Universal Plug and Play, there are several requirements:
- The operation system has to support it and the functionality has to be activated.
- The router has to support it and the option has to be activated.
- If a firewall is installed, it has to be set to allow UPnP traffic.
- The used eMule Mod has to have UPnP support and the option has to be activated.
Note: To find and fix problems with UPnP use the UPnP Test Program from the See also section.
