I guess that's the issue - you (or your router) really needs a way to
statically define these associations (at least in some specific cases). I
sort of assumed all routers could do that, but maybe I expect too much.
Yup, that's basically a deficiency I've got... well, that and the fact that I
can't stop it from changing my source port numbers. I needed this kind of router for
VLAN support, so I'm missing a few features that lower-end models would offer like
UPnP.
