Comment:

 Well... I use 64-bit Ubuntu if that matters anything.. I do have UPnP
 enabled on the router also (for being home with multiple users it's quite
 handy)..

 Let me ask it this way then: Why not be able to put domainname there? What
 would be the harm?

 Also by making it able to use domainname it would then make no need for
 "external" STUN server at all because I do have neccesary port forwards
 already manually for myself and no-ip domainname that router keeps up to
 date...

 If the scenario would work, it would only add more configurability for
 users, and I don't know what harm it could do either.
