I have several uPNP software (not related to Squeezebox/Softsqueeze) running on the same machine (ie hulu based server/client, trillian, etc); UPNP is enable on all devices (server and clients); including my router.
Maybe I didnt understand you right, but are you saying that Squeezebox/Softsqueeze use port 9000 via UPNP to communicate? I'm guessing you didnt mean all upnp devices under the sun use port 9000. :) I know that in the past, I have always used port 9000 for SqueezeServer, SqueezeCenter, SqueezeBox to talk to Softsqueeze using the traditional method to communicate along with port 3483. Please correct me if I'm wrong (or help clarify), when UPNP on Squeezebox is enabled... both squeezebox/softsqueeze are smart enough to switch from using a proprietary, explicitly defined ports 9000/3483 and instead, let UPNP to define port 9000 (telling the softsqueeze.jar based clients to use port 9000 via UPNP)? Is port 3483 no longer needed when using UPNP; or, does that still required and proprietary/explicitly defined for the squeeze protocol?
