I am remotely trying to troubleshoot a friends new Allstar installation.  I can ssh in and connect out to nodes but I cannot connect in to the system from external nodes. Port 4569 is forwarded.

I discovered this link -

about consistent NAT and I was wondering if that might be the problem.

I was able to connect in one time right after a reboot which might support the NAT issue.

The router is an Actiontek MI424WR GigE  as supplied by Verizon on their FIOS system.

Is anyone else having a problem with this router or have any ideas on this?

Nothing is logged at the server or shows up in the client on the system which kind of points to a routing failure.

Is there a good way to check for open port 4569 as I don't think normal port scan programs will check this.
