Clear or Delete individual uPnP ports?

Is there a way to delete uPnP ports without rebooting the router or disable/enable the uPnP service?

I know Tomato can do it but I'm really enjoying the speed of Merlin's build.

You could try restarting the UPNP service. Through SSH:

Code:
service restart_upnp

I didn't check if miniupnp takes care of closing down existing forwards. Note that it does close down expired forwards after a certain period of time.
 
Most newer devices will close the ports when finished or after a set time. My old Xbox 360 will open a port and it never seems to close but the Xbox One works fine, the issue being that the 360 and One use similar ports.

I'll make a script using that command over SSH.

Thanks!
 
disable secure mode on upnp
and you can remove port forwards from my network on a windows pc

This can be a useful feature. You can delete UPnP ports on DD-WRT too.

Sorry to bump this old thread, but it came up in a search so I tried it and it doesn't seem to work. The web page still shows all the old UPNP entries.
