MN700 Port Forwarding Woes

After much hassle I managed to get my FTP and Webservers
working but the MN700s Port Forwarding continues to cause
problems.

Azureus requires port 6881 to remain open and the test
dosn't detect a NAT error. HOWEVER, I *still* can't get
any remote connections (R) but only Local (L)
connections... this is usually a symptom of a NAT error
or port forwarding problem. What am I missing here?

The MN700 does not support loopback. If you are trying to
simulate a remote connection using the WAN IP from a LAN
client won't work. You need to use a client physically
outside the LAN (or use a proxy physically outside the
LAN).

Did you use persistent or app-triggered? You may need to
use a persistent port forwarding and assign a static IP
to the PC, since app-triggered does not work with all
apps.

Use Bittornado 0.3.1.

It'll open the ports automatically (via UPnP) and close them when you close
the Bittornado window.

Works perfectly here.

I'm having the same problem with port forwarding with mn
720. What is bittornado?
