[Dxspider-support] Port forwarding issue on a Netgear router

[Bob Nielsen]

No, port forwarding works fine on my Linksys WRT160N router.   I got the replacement because the DHCP server on the Linksys will occasionally stop working.

I found that there is an unofficial version of DD-WRT firmware available for this model and may try that if they can't resolve it.  In the meantime, I will switch back to my older Linksys router today, since it was forwarding the port successfully.  The DHCP server on that router is a bit flakey, which is why I bought the new router, but I can live with that by resetting the router periodically.
