First, again, thanks to all with suggestions.  After my last post (the
end of about 2 1/2 days of farting around with the issue), I was at
least able to pinpoint the issue as being OpenWRT and NOT anything with
my SB or Squeezecenter.  To help others, and to let those who helped me
know what happened, here it is:

I was using OpenWRT, the White Russian version, as recommended on the
page for that piece of hardware on the OpenWRT site.  I had a lot of
views of my topic, but not one post to help me.  I was looking at other
open router Linux distros, but then ended up trying their next release,
Kamikaze.  The web interface didn't give me the fine tuning I wanted
and it took a while to get used to the new interface and what it did
offer, but I did get it working.

It took extra time to get it working because I couldn't ping the WAN
interface for some reason and couldn't ping the server either, but when
I did requests for host addresses and tried to read the web pages for
Squeezecenter, I got them.

I still have to go through to verify that it is NOT forwarding all
ports to all computers, but since I can't ping anything I suspect it's
not.

Again, thanks for the help!  I'm a long time supporter of FOSS, but
when I can ask for help with a FOSS project like OpenWRT and get no
responses, it seems clear to me why so many people dislike FOSS.
