Port Forwarding Doesn't Work LinksysSRX400

I just bought a LinksysSRX400 wireless router (WRT54GX4) and it's hooked up to my 2wire DSL modem (2WireHomeportal 1100).
The router worked right out of the box and i was able to get online on my pc, ps2 and my xbox360 without any problems. So far, i've succesfuly opened the NAT on my 360(it said opened once i enabled upnp) and i've succesfuly put my ps2 into DMZ mode. The problem is that acording to the Linksys set up page, ports 49152-49200 (both TCP and UPD) are open but whenever i run the NAT/Firewall test in Azureus, i keep getting "NAT Error" and in Limwire, it says that i'm behind a firewall with "Fair Connection" where before the router, it said "turbo charged connection" and it didnt show that i was behind a firewall. The ports wer open before i hooked up the router and all the programs that used those ports ran perfect. The 2wire Homeportal modem sort of has a firewall built in but i went to the settings page and the router is in DMZ mode (where all ports are open) so i doubt that it's the modem that's causing the problem. Here are some pics:

2Wire Homeportal Modem's Firewall Settings:


Linksys Router Settings. shows ports are opened but all programs say they're closed.


all help will be greatly apreciated.
