Setting up a game's console on the Eastserve network

 

You first require a wireless cable router with UPnP capabilities

 

Why UPnP

This will help in the setup of the router ports with this ability you would not have to open internet ports or set static IP on your games console.

What is UPnP?

Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) is a set of networking protocols promulgated by the UPnP Forum. The goals of UPnP are to allow devices to connect seamlessly and to simplify the implementation of networks in the home (data sharing, communications, and entertainment) UPnP achieves this by defining and publishing UPnP device control protocols (DCP) built upon open, Internet-based communication standards.

The term UPnP is derived from plug-and-play, a technology for dynamically attaching devices directly to a computer, although UPnP is not directly related to the earlier plug-and-play technology. UPnP devices are "plug-and-play" in that when connected to a network they automatically announce their network address and supported device and services types, enabling clients that recognize those types to immediately begin using the device.
