<font size="-1">That sounds like the router does not actually do
port forwarding. Port forwarding maps a port on the outside
interface and forwards that port to an internal computer. If your
router supports uPnP you could try one of addons for Linux that
add this functionality. <br>

Now you need to open the file in your text editor (nano, vi, emacs) and

<pre wrap="">I've already done that to move SSH to a non-standard port, although I
did now know I could define multiple ports. Neat!
The problem is that even though I have told the the router to pass that
non-standard port through; it does not work.
Advanced port forwarding (e.g. port 12345 to foo:22) is not supported
either.
I need a way for the Pi itself to punch out through the firewall and
connect to another server or something, from which I can then access the
Pi as the router is totally useless.
