I wouldn't be too worried about the node not knowing about the port being
forwarded if you are sure you configured it.

I'm guessing you are running Windows Vista or Seven which iirc enable IP6 by
default...
I'm not sure, but try looking in your Freenet.ini file for the lines
node.opennet.bindTo=0.0.0.0
and
node.bindTo=0.0.0.0
These are IP4 type addresses, if you have longer ones like
0:0:0:0:0:0:0:1 you will need to shutdown your node and edit those lines to
only have the IP4 style.

This is probably the node trying to connect to a stun server to resolve it's
IP address.
