Media Center Extender Setup failed as the Extender was detected on the network but the UPnP search for the Extender failed (timed out after 20000ms)

I am trying to connect Windows Media Center with my XBOX 360 / Kinect. When I enter the setup key, it starts looking for extender but it fails. The Windows Error Log for Windows Media Center is as follows :

Media Center Extender Setup failed as the Extender was detected on the network but the UPnP search for the Extender failed (timed out after 20000ms).

I have a Netgear JWNR 2000 router and it has UPnP enabled. I have all the related service to Windows Media Center running and there is no firewall issues either.

I can see the XBox in the Network and Sharing Center. Also it is allowed device to which the media can be streamed.

Any idea how to resolve this.
