Unfortunately it is hard to diagnose all problems when you have an inexperienced person at the other end. <br><br>It turns out the router was forwarding the right port BUT it was set to tcp instead of udp. I had gone over this several times with the operator and I had thought it was right but when we looked at it again it was wrong.<br><br>When set in the tcp mode it did accept connections but only for a short window of time after a prior disconnect from the other direction.<br><br>Thanks for all the input and sorry to cause all the back and forth on this.
