i actually kill upnp at my firewall. i do not want applications being
able to poke holes in my firewall without my knowledge. Especially
given the huge ranges some applications use.

Actually, I do not have UPnP enabled onmy firewall (not router). I use a
Check Point NGX firewall to protect my network and it is very picky about
things like UPnP. I'll have to do some tcpdumps during my next BT session
to see how it's handling the traffic.

Yes - but I don't imagine many people have UPnP setup in their router, if it
supports it.

While BitTorrent is not NAT-friendly, BT clients like Azureus seem to
avoid the NAT pitfalls. On my home network, for the life of me, I cannot
get BT to work; however, Azureus works 95% of the imte. Tracking works

well.
I asked a similar question on the BT protocol discussion list and found
that the 3rd party BT clients (like Azureus) use UPnP to automagically
configure port forwarding in the router. The original BT client doesn't
have that feature.
