I have UPnP turned on as well and I passed.
About a year or so ago I got hacked, my own fault for forgetting to set a name and password for my new router ![]()
I have to have UPnP turned on so as to run my webcam devices I use which has to keep a port open all the time to work. But my configuration passwords on the router were changed from the usual default USERNAME/PASSWORD, admin/admin the day it was installed as a matter of course. As for the wireless function of the router, that's switched off as all the machines in the house are hard-wired into the Ethernet Network, much more stable, a lot faster and impossible for someone like neighbours or mobile phone users to try and piggyback.
I too ran the test. Safe, apart from the high horse content of the burger I ate 2 hours ago![]()
