    "Wow, incredible stuff"

    December 23, 2004  |   By brbubba

    Summary

    I was just introduced to this software because my parents use AOL and AOL has started shipping it with their latest version software. I had no clue what it was until it automatically set itself up. And boy am I impressed.

    For someone who is used to manually configuring all sorts of home routers this software saves me tons of headaches in having to track down what ports something is using and what ports I need to forward on my router. This can be especially useful for the unitiated user who is not very knowledgable on the workings of their router.

    I would urge anyone to give this one a try. It immediately recognized my router with no problems and started opening up ports for me. Not to mention this should yield various oohs and ahhs from any geek who has had to deal with router config.
