The stock WRT-54G has a "UPnP" feature that can be enabled or disabled, but they are vague on what precisely it actually 
does.

Some users of the PlayOn server have reported discovery problems since the last PlayON upgrade, and MediaMall's support 
people suggested turning off the UPnP feature of Linksys routers, some users report that fixed the problem, but others say 
it did not.

Which I guess proves nothing, but it's a data point.
