The Vigor2500Series already supports Microsoft's UPnP technology. The UPnP protocol is intended to bring to network connected devices, the ease of installation and configuration that is already available for directly connected PC peripherals with the existing Windows "Plug and Play" system.

For NAT routers, the major feature of UPnP on the Vigor2500 Series is "NAT Traversal". This enables applications inside the firewall to automatically open the ports they need to pass through a router. This is more reliable than requiring a router to work out by itself which ports need to be opened and without the user having manually set up port mappings or a DMZ. UPnP is available on Windows XP and the Vigor2500 Series provides support for MSN Messenger, allowing full use of the voice, video and messaging features.
