Routers for SBS

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance



I've got SBS servers behind Linksys BEFSR41 and Netgear RP614 routers.
I've got uPnP enabled for each router and SBS recognizes this and
"configures" the routers.

However, it appears that neither router allows enough configuration
slots in its uPNP support for SBS to configure ALL the TCP/IP ports it
may need for all operations.

Does anyone know of a "soho" router that allows SBS to configure all
the TCP/IP ports it needs using uPnP facilities? Lots of routers say
they "support" uPnP but their documentation doesn't speak to any
limits on uPnP configurable ports and it appears there ARE some.

TIA
