Sorry if this has been posted already but with Christmas a few days away I'm sure there will be many new gamers and thus i wanted to share the following link posted on the Actiontec web site. It shows how one should set up their Actiontec router to support multi-player gaming on Wii and Xbox.
Come on please, rolls eyes.
#1 Please, only use UPnP if there is at least two game consoles behind the router!
#2 Otherwise, manually port forward. It is not that hard.
I point to:

b) And
Absolutely, if you only have one or two gaming systems, turn the upnp off and use static IP with manual port forwarding. Not hard to do and with the shortcommings of the verizon OS on the router, this eliminates a lot of issues. Save yourselves some headaches and use the above links for reference.
