This takes a restart from scratch!
My base Network setup was a wired Network which got it's DHCP from a Linksys Wireless gateway. The WAN connection to the Linksys was through a Fedora 14 Server.
I have two Servers both of which have a Fixed Routeable address from my ISP. I was working just fine with my below described Firewall setup until I tried to connect a DirectTV HD DVR via the Network. This is when I found the blocked Port problem as described below.
The first reply I got asked what system-config-firewall showed, it seemed like a reasonable question so I ran the program. I looked and the program had nothing about the ports in question so I closed it!
Immediately thereafter I could get nothing through the Server out to the Internet! I can ping to the output address of the Linksys but, nothing further from inside the house. I can access the Internet from the server but not from behind it. It seems the problem has just gotten worse and I have no idea how.
ip route shows a valid routing from the interior facing port to the exterior facing port but, nothing seems to pass.
I am for sure in over my head here!

I need to use Ports 27177 and 27178 but, every Port Checker I can find says they are blocked.
My iptables setup ( for ) now is:
Incoming Packages- Accept Forwarded Packets- Accept Outgoing Packets- Accept
The way I understand it, that means NO Ports should be blocked. Am I barking up the wrong tree and need to be checking with my ISP?
I think I should be but am just looking for a sanity check!
Do you have a service running on those ports? If you don't they will show up as "closed" even if not blocked by a firewall.
