Hi

I've got some issues keeping the connections for the system together.
Here are my setup details.

I've got a Duet system. SC running on a Debian server. I have an IPCOP
router.

The IPCOP router has separate networks for wired and wireless segments.
The router prevents devices on the wireless lan talking to devices on
the wired lan.

My initial setup is; the receiver on the wired lan talking to a SC
server on the wired lan. The controller connects via the receiver.
This setup allows every thing to talk to everything with out any
firewall issues as its all hanging off the wired lan.

I'm about to add some other slim devices in other areas of the house
and the wireless reception for the controller isn't great in other
rooms. So I want to make the controller connect via my main wireless
access point, which does offer good reception throughout the house.

Since the controller will be connecting via the wireless lan, the
firewall prevent access to the receiver and the SC as they are on the
wired lan. I'm not too sure what ports I need to open, but I have opened
the following:

UDP controller IP => 192.168.40.0/24 : 3483 Discovery   
TCP controller IP => 192.168.40.0/24 : 3483 Control     
TCP controller IP => 192.168.40.0/24 : 9000 Web         
This is the network that the SqueezeCenter site on.

UDP controller IP => SC IP : 3483 Discovery     
TCP controller IP => SC IP : 3483 Control       
TCP controller IP => SC IP : 9000 Web   

UDP controller IP => Receiver IP : 3483 Discovery       
TCP controller IP => Receiver IP : 3483 Control         
TCP controller IP => Receiver IP : 9000 Web

After opening the ports I changed the network connection on the
controller for via the receiver to the Access Point. It worked fine.

But then if you turn off the controller and then back on again it
doesn't work.
The controller will pick up the new network and get an IP address but
it will not make a connection to receiver. I'm not sure if this is
because it can not talk to the receiver or the SC.

What does the controller talk to? The receiver or the SC?
I'm not really sure what the problem is, it getting all above my
understanding.
Are there some issues with the ports?
Does the controller do a network wide search (Discovery) for the SC
each time it boots? 
Are the pinholes in my firewall sufficient to allow this to work? Is
the pinhole 192.168.40.0/24:3483 valid? Will this work?

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for your help in
advance.
James
