UPNP/NAT Traversal Library for C#

I'm writing a client-server game in C# where one person fires up the server part of the program and the others fire up the client part and connect to the server using his IP address and they all play in peace. It works fine but i also want users from other networks to be able to connect and not just from the same subnet. I don't want to use manual port forwarding (in the router's settings) because it's not always accessible or hole punching because then the host needs to know the addresses of the clients, so i started looking for a UPNP or a NAT Traversal library where the server simply sends a port forwarding request to the router and that's it but none of the ones i found worked without either crashing or just doing nothing.
Does anybody know a good library or a different solution to this problem?
