Advanced Network

UPnP is short for Universal Plug and

Play, which is a networking architecture

that provides compatibility among

networking equipment, software,

and peripherals. The DWL-3150 is

an UPnP enabled device, meaning

it will work with other UPnP devices/

software. If you do not want to use

the UPnP functionality, it can be

disabled by selecting “Disable”.

When you Enable WAN Ping respond,

you are causing the public WAN

(Wide Area Network) IP address

on the device to respond to ping

commands sent by Internet users.

Pinging public WAN IP addresses is

a common method used by hackers

to test whether your WAN IP address

is valid.

Enable this option to allow Multicast

trafﬁc to pass from the Internet to

your network more efﬁciently.

DDNS

Dynamic DNS (Domain Name

Service) is a method of keeping a

domain name linked to a changing

your DDNS service, in which the

DWL-3150 will automatically update

your DDNS server every time it

receives a new WAN IP address.
