When I enable UPnP and try to enable Internetgateway
in XP the router disconnects and looses its internet
connection type settings and falls back to the default
automatic configuration-DHCP setting. I am running
XPPro and have already disabled QoS in Network adapter.

    I have exactly the same problme for a long time now. New
    Firwares are released but the bug is still there. Would it be
    possible to fix ths issue as UPNP is very important for people
    using MSN Messenger for exemple.

    Thanks anyway for the huge work you already did and keep
    up the good job.

    This is actually a known Linksys bug, and it has been
    discussed in a few other forums.

    I have a WRT54G 1.0 with a PPPOE ADSL connection, and my
    Internet Connection shows that it is Enabled, but not initially.
    Every time I perform a firmware upgrade, it resets to
    Disabled. Anyway here's what I do every time to get it
    working again.

    1. Reset the router to Factory defaults. Yes, I know I lose all
    the settings!
    2. Change the Admin password AND enable UPnP (I also
    disable Telnet at the same time). Save the changes.
    3. Check Internet Connection status. If still disabled, repeat
    #1 and #2. Only if it shows Enabled, then do I continue with
    setting up my ADSL connection, etc.

    Hope this can help.

    Same problem here as well.

    There is a rumour floating around the Sveasoft forums that
    there's a workaround for this by using some sort-of new
    PPPoE base for Linux. It may be worth investigating this.

    UPnP enabled in XP?

    This affects me too. There are rumors this is fixed in the
    latest Linksys firmware. Can we not fold in their change
    into our codebase as well?
