[QUOTE="upnorth, post: 904128, member: 38832"] I strongly doubt the majority of home users disable UPnP on their routers. It is one of several key settings that should be disabled by default, but as most of us here know, that's sadly not the case. If home users cares little about their machine/system, they normally care even less about their routers. That's why it's extra important that ISPs that supply home users with routers at least have an automatic working update policy on the products. That is better then nothing, even if we would love to see a few more tweaks. More in the link below : [URL unfurl="true"]https://routersecurity.org/#StartHere[/URL] [/QUOTE]
