Should I turn off uPNP?

I work from home and my office phone is connected to my router.

I'm experiencing frequent dropped calls which the phone company is attributing to uPNP being enabled on my router.

If I turn off uPNP will I break anything? I don't really know what it is... :?:

UPNP automatically open ports for applications like Skype, Xbox Live etc.

You can always try disabling the function, reboot the router, and test your phones out.
