Using DSL with a Westell 327W DSL modem/router with the latest Verizon
firmware.  The router does the PPPoE authentication.

Yes.  I have to manually forward the port since automatic port
forwarding has never worked here.

[root at compaq-pc ~]# iptables --list
Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target     prot opt source               destination
ACCEPT     all  --  anywhere             anywhere            state

Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT)

Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT)

Using port 49013 as shown above.  I filed

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=507056

and Transmission 1.72 in Koji fixes the problem, as does going back to
the original 1.53.  However, 1.71 is reproducibly broken, at least for me.
