Hi, You shouldn't need to touch your home router config to be able to connect from your BBB to external hosts (but check you can ping the same hosts using your PC too). Nearly all ISP provided routers will be set up correctly. Opening up ports from the internet is not recommended. Your wireless connection is good since you can ping your home router. Not sure why the router isn't forwarding packets. A traceroute may help, but beyond that I don't know what the issue is. Regarding work network, that's a different kettle of fish. Your work network may have security at layer 2. In other words, you'd need to confirm with your IT team if they will allow an unsupported device on the network. Packets from unauthorized devices may be silently dropped depending on how secure your work network is.
