Michael,

Previous to m0n0wall, I was using a FreeBSD server with IPNat/IPFilter 
for my firewall.  I installed the Linux UPnP internet gateway 
http://sourceforge.net/projects/linux-igd using the version in the 
FreeBSD ports.  It worked great but personally I no longer use UPnP 
because it essentially allows apps to poke holes in your firewall on 
demand; you should be able to accomplish what you need with the proper 
stateful packet filter rules.  I know that many commercial home routers 
implement UPnP so if you really need it, it is a breeze to install it 
because it is available in the FreeBSD ports.  You just need to 
understand the security risks...

Regards,
Bruce
