Subject: Re: [WISPA] XBOX live, NAT, and UPnP

Everything i keep coming up with to make this work "ideal" according to the
customer is I"m gonna have to sell them a public ip for $10/month *grins*
and then make sure their CPE is in bridge mode and assign that static to the
customers router so they can enable UPnP themselves.
