It's just like your box can't listen for inbound connections at address 131.112.32.132 (address of my box). However, if UPnP box is configured properly, your box behind it can listen for inbound connections on some ports at some public address. Issues on stability and advertisements of the port numbers are not very different from those of addresses, which may be assigned by DHCP. Masataka Ohta
