Port forwarding

Secure Shell Server (IIRC)

forwarded to BLAH

but IIRC this is for external traffic, I was not aware internal traffic carried a port 22 restriction.

EDIT: Yeah, this should only apply if you attempted to go outside the 192.168.x.x range and resolve the kindle via an externally referenced ip (your public ip for example would be a sensible option) and checked external connectivity to the kindle service

FIREWALL SETTINGS: DEFAULT: Allow all outgoing connections and block all unsolicited incoming traffic. Port forwarding is allowed.

Have you checked the OS you are using is actually letting the request out? or the pings?

Is this on windows as a host? Cheers. HTH a bit.

EDIT: I just went and checked one. I doubt itś your router
Thanks
I am on a Windows PC, Windows 7 Ultimate x64, and I can ping the router and web addresses, but not the kindle unfortunately. When I try to I get a reply from my own IP address saying that the destination host is unreachable both with and without usbnetworking on. I have verified all of the settings you mention and they are all in place and correct. I tried connecting via my external IP but that doesn't work either, when I used an open port checker it said port 22 was closed.
Thanks for the help though,
Bill
