Just this morning got the echolink port forwarding worked out. The key is setting up your PC Lan connection for a fixed IP address (instead of assigned automatically), and configuring your router to forward certain UDP ports to your fixed address. Wasn't working yesterday, but the problem turned out to be a typo when inputting the fixed IP address into the router configuration - the verification test passes now with no problems. Will try to set it up tonite to connect to W0TX as Kelly mentioned.

BTW, the configuration instructions are very clear and provide screen shots of what you should see.
