In fact, the very first thing you should do with a router or firewall is disable UPnP capability.

of course not... I'm talking about a music player appliance that will navigate and stream music from a NAS without any extra software or a PC being on.
Looks like that WS TV Live does that, but who knows how well. My Sangean takes about 15 minutes to "index" 3000 songs, and it seems to want to do that every time I want to play a song. On much smaller shared it's fine.
