I am trying to use BaUPnP to port forward my pc, it says there is no UpnP router there but i need to enable UPnP. I go into my DG834N router and it was already enabled???

How do i check if its enabled in windows xp?
 
Don't forget also, if Universal Plug n Play isn't listed in Services, you might have to install the capability to use it:

Control Panel > Add/Remove Programs > Add/Remove Windows Components > Networking Services > UPnP User Interface. That will install the ability to display the upnp icons in Network Places, as well as open the required ports in Windows Firewall.

You might also need to install Internet Gateway Device Discovery and Control Client from the same location. A quick reboot later and all should be well :)
