    It's a router setting. Once you're at the router setup you can click 'help' and read what it says.

    I made a mistake of my previous answer and hit the send.

    The reason I asked this is because I am trying to use Windows Live Call and
    I can't get it to work. The connectivity test says I am using a Non-UPnP
    Firewall.

    What is confusing is I do NOT have a router, I'm using a laptop.

    I looked at all of my programs and I can't see any program that would relate
    to a router unless it is hidden in something else.

    It is an universal plug and play (UPnP)–enabled firewalls.

    Might want to look at this. It may help but seems a bit technical...

    Are you using any firewall besides Windows? Perhaps you need to allow Live Care.
