Hi jmizoguchi
Thanks for replying, yes I have change the default port to another number, also the second rule that I have configured uses one of our other public IP Addresses so that I could check that it wasn't something strange with the default public address set on the firewall.
As a test I have set also tried setting a rule of one kind or another using all of the 5 usable IP addresses and none of the rules make it through to the LAN device even though the log shows that they have been accepted inbound.
Many Thanks
Neal.
