Especially for all of your valuable time. I believe the issue is just now resolved. The problem was using my wireless adapter as a bridge to a virtual machine. It took me a couple of days to think of stringing a long cable to the router to see what might happen. When I looked at adapter properties I saw that the wireless was offline. No wonder the port was down. Lesson learned. Hardwire from now on.

What is the value of the router's NoIP Advanced Setup, Dynamin DNS setup? By turning it off the port appears to remain open! I could find no mention of that screen in the online manual. But I figured it was required. Looks like not.
