I have been doing port forwarding for Calibre on Shaw routers using DYNDNS for several years. No fuss. But have just moved and the exclusive provider is now Telus and I have not yet been able to set up port forwarding for Calibre.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Telus frowns on using servers on a residential plan. To quote from their terms of service:
Quote:

13. You are not permitted to operate an e-mail, web, news or other similar server through a Services account, except where such use is expressly permitted under your service plan.

The one time I attempted to find out what services were actually allowed on a residential plan, I ended up killing a couple of hours being bounced around their phone tree being told repeatedly that that the person I was talking to did not have that information available and that I needed a business plan (and it's much higher fees) to run a server.
You can try using port 9090 instead of 8080 to see if this gets around Telus port blocking since the last time I checked, they blocked 80, 443, 8080 and 8081 which are common web services ports.
