External users unable to connect to 2wire network.

I have a similar setup, and the same problem. This is my first post, so bear with me. Before I set my network up as defined by MindScrew, can we narrow this down? I am sure I have missed something along the lines of port-forwarding.

• The server is started on boot, in daemon mode (I guess...)
• I am able to connect from my home network, but others cannot.
• Outside connections can view my http server at hostname.
• Ports are forwarded to 192.168.1.73 (TCP/UDP 3784. UDP 6100 after reading threads.)
• DynDns Open Port Tool shows the port as "timed out", although I did have it show "open" once, but cannot return to that configuration.
• Nmap shows port 3784/tcp as "tcpwrapped"
• AIM: Deadlystryker88 best method of contact.

/etc/network/interfaces looks like

auto lo eth0
iface lo inet loopback
iface eth0 inet dhcp

Through eBox, I have an option of designating my eth0 interface as external.

AT&T has upgraded my firmware apparently, and the problem is solved. As I dissect the new configuration page for changes, I will post back when I find out what has solved my problem.

Ventrilo Status is able to see the server, but users are still unable to connect.
