I have the same router you are using. You must turn DHCP off and use "Port forwarding" not "Port triggering". Setup static addresses on your network and forward ports 5900-6000 to the WIN98 machine running VNC. This should work.

See the excellents http://cable-dsl.home.att.net/, http://www.webcom.com/llarrow/mtumss.html Your can use WinDump http://windump.polito.it to examine the trafic You can use "ping -f -l 1400, 1480, 1500, ..." to see if there is a difference with and without your router when the packet becomes fragmented. If you have a FTP server on the remote computer, you can evidence the problem with a "ls/dir" on an empty directory working ok (less than 200 bytes transferred for example) and a "ls" on a big directory (more than 1600 bytes transfered) not working. I got 18 months ago the same problem with a CenterCom ADSL router in Japan.
