for its consumer-grade routers tends to offer very little in this
neighborhood.)

How, exactly, did you discover that? If you're testing from a device
on the router's LAN, using the router's WAN/Internet IP address, then
NAT loopback could cause misleading results.

Perhaps there's no point, then, in providing a useful problem
description.
