I recently ran into a new icon in Win-XP's "Network Connections"
section. It is called 'Internet Gateway' and has some settings similar
to those found inside external routers.
(There has also been msg traffic lately about this 'Internet Gateway'
icon DISAPPEARING and REAPPEARING randomly, along with
mentioning SP2.)
Is this Internet Gateway icon something new in SP2 or does it pre-date
SP2?
This is allso my first time hearing about 'UPnP routers'. I've been
installing
D-Link, NetGear, Siemens, and Linksys. And, just two days ago,
I installed my first Microsoft-router...a model MN-700.
Is the MN-700 a 'UPnP' variant?
I never use the CDROM that comes with these units. (Maybe I should
start using it?!)
Is there a cause-effect relationship between the concept of 'UPnP router'
and this 'Internet Gateway' icon in Network Connections, or did I just
happen upon this concepts accidently in the last few days?
TIA...
