UPnP mapping does not work over WLAN ?

Hi!

I run uTorrent v1.8.2 on my laptop (WinXP-SP3).

I have it connected to internet thru an Edimax BR-6204Wg router running firmware v1.61.

I noticed that the ports are not forwarded by UPnP.

I also noticed that this happens only over WLAN. If I disable the WLAN connection and use a LAN cable, the it works.

Any idea ?

I prefer not to have a cable to the laptop. :-(

Regards,

David

WLAN is just bridged to LAN, using same DCHP range.

DreadWingKnight, I wrote it is WinXP-SP3 ;-)

Problem solved.

Or at least, cause found.

The PC was sending UPNP packets to wrong NIC.

I tried with MiniUPnPc and if I set the NIC to use manually, then it works.

Maybe it is confused by the presence of VMWare virtual NICs.

Edit 2:

After disabling the VMWare interfaces and deleting some old and unused dial-up and broadband connections, it all just works. :-)
