Forget your linksys... it doesn't have enough ballz to handle the wan traffic. I tried 3 different Linksys broadband routers, a speedstream, and finally ended up with a Netgear RP614. The linksys will drop UDP streams like mad, your players will drop like flys in a bug zapper... the speedstream is a little better, but not enough port configs to allow MOHAA to be sitting behind the router and not in the DMZ.

The Netgear has a 50Mhz RISC CPU and 8MB of ram for caching... a lot better than anything else I've tested on the market.

(I ran into the same problem as you... check out http://www.epinions.com and read the reviews of the three routers I did).
