Presistant Port Forwarding Not Working On MN-700

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.broadbandnet.hardware (More info?)

Are You trying to connect to the WAN IP address from behind the MN-700?
If that is the case it will not work. The MN-700 doesn't have
loopback support at this point.

I presume you are talking about loopback support? Apparently this will be
addresses in the next firmware upgrade which is rumoured to be around the
same time as XP SP2 (since there are some changes required to the firmware
as a result of SP2). This is all speculation since there seldom is any
contribution to this ng by any MS staffer (most are MVPs - volunteer users
who give a lot of their time to helping others in the ng).
