MiniUPnP: UPnP Internet Gateway Device.
« on: December 16, 2009, 03:37:48 pm »
UPnP IGN would help for Xbox or PC Gaming from behind the firewall.  MiniUPnP can provide this functionality if integrated into the LinuxMCE firewall.  I am not in a position to preform this, but I thought someone might take an interest.

I dont understand...you can already setup your ps3 or xbox from behind the lmce firewall. Why would we need this? What additional functions would it provide?
Linuxmce - Where everyone is never wrong, but we are always behind xbmc in the media / ui department.

Certain games utilize the UPnP functionality to dynamically open and close ports on the firewall for gaming.  Example, Call of duty modern warfare 2.  These games may work to a certain extent under the existing implementation.  However, some game servers that would normally be accessible through UPnP and the ability to hosting Coop games will not be.
