Yes, looks identical and everything's forwarded to my server machine (192.168.1.101) it's just not cooperating, I am going to call verizon in a few and see if the port is blocked.

Will try our new one today maybe.....we got a netgear wireless router free when we bought the kids new laptops.

This just in... I got a new router.

It is a Buffalo Technology router. AirStation Turbo G High Power Wireless Smart Router. It is primarily the best for wireless routing, but it has 4 ports for 10/100 use and then a 10/100 WAN port. I'm not an expert at this, but the thing took about ten minutes to set up. I pressed the buttons that looked pretty and everything works, don't even have to set up port forwarding. Yes it is in router mode, not AP mode. I use No-IP for my serving needs and I can simply type in f*p://rudybankson.myftp.org:21 and it will intelligently go straight through to my computer, don't try it now as I'm away from home and have my computer with me; it won't work.

Also for those of you out there that are owned by WiFi, I highly recomend this. The range on it using it without any of its special features is far superior than any Linksys router out there and if you have a matching wireless card, you can take advantage of the super long range and very high speeds, up to 125Mbps and 2000 foot range.
