Is there a tool in ubuntu that a user can start that reports the real world ip address and configures a home router to open a port to allow remote administration?
I just installed the gupnp-universal-cp package, and ran the gupnp- universal-cp program, which discovered my linksys wag54gp2, and lets me query it and configure it. It's not an elegant interface or user-friendly interface though, although i'm sure you can script it. That's kind of the point of upnp after all. Also, I completely failed to add an inbound port 22 mapping via UPNP. Was able to query everything correctly, getting external IP, bytes sent/received, etc.
