Further investigations into the inability of the N66U to correctly allow certain OSX programs to map the router with NAT-PMP.
While running Vuze in Win7, I noticed that it had no issue with remapping the correct port as it uses upnp.
Transmission on OSX will use upnp and will successfully remap as well.
However, programs that request the port to be mapped with just nat-pmp will fail.
I used wireshark to sniff the packets from all the macs and PCs connected to Airport extremes(which then feed to the base unit hooked into a LAN port of the router) to see what I could see.
EVERY nat-pmp mapping request comes back as REFUSED.
Why?
Are there any settings in NVRAM to change this?
So iut looks like upnp works, but not nat-pmp.
ANy ideas?
