Re: How to make your feed cloud-aware

UPnP is not supported by many routers and is specifically disabled in Windows by default because of malware issues. This solution would only work, if a geek like me and you were at the helm. The user doesn't have to configure the router, but he does have to configure Windows. It would not work in the majority of cases. Further, most every public WiFi enabled router does not enable or support UPnP. 

On both the corporate and NAT fronts. These are technically viable solutions that you've presented. Neither works in the real world where an uber-geek is not present. Neither are viable solutions as they will only work in the 1% case.

Thanks,

Randy
