UPNP on EE Smart HUB (SH31B) not working

[Kncowans]

Hello all

I have some Apps that use UPNP to Setup Access through the Router.

However, it seems that UPNP on the EE Smart HUB does not work.

In order to get the Apps to Allow Access through the Router I need to Disable UPNP on the Smart HUB and Create a Firewall Rule for the App, again, on the Smart HUB, once this is done then the App works fine.

Is anyone else having Issues with UPNP on the EE Smart HUB?

Thanks in advance

Kevin

hi Bobpullen - have you got the firmware update notes on this?

@TommyChrist24 - I don't, sorry. I was basing my UPnP statement on what I could see on my own network. This is using a command line UPnP client and was failing to locate a valid UPnP server before the 3.8.11 firmware update: -

PS C:\MiniUPnP> .\upnpc-static -l
upnpc : miniupnpc library test client, version 2.2.3.
