Again NAT-1 is *not* NAT at all ;)

But ok, I get the idea. Have to say that UPnP is of course the worst thing one could imagine on a router... Everything that speaks UPnP can open and manipulate ports on the router and therefore kill any "security" NAT inherently has.

Default should always be NAT-3, in my opinion. You can turn this easily to "NAT-2" by opening the ports manually which is always the best idea.

Yeap... security and all but I love uPnP... after it I never needed to config router anymore... my brother stopped to ask me how to do the things in the router to works the games.

I really don't care that much with security... I don't have anything confidencial on PC or something like... there are family pictures but not anything xxx too and all pics are published in some public photo site... so I guess that's not my issue.

uPnP works... that's what I need


Don't say security if you mean privacy ;) I get your idea but really, UPnP *is* an inherent backdoor and people should really be warned about it.
