Ok, I found a new problem. My router, a Nexland ISB Pro800 Turbo is
blocking outbound udp ports. I first noticed this when DNS had to be set
to the router instead of my normal verizon 4.2.2.1 dns server.

Since symantec bought nexland and essentially axed the product support,
I'm scrod. Looks like I shopping for a new router. :(
