EDIT: Telkomsa 5102G rebadged Billion. In my initial post I thought this router internet accessible. I forgot I'm on a network that doesn't use a proxy so my testing was internal so I'm a stupid-ass... anyway.

Still can't port forward this router. Tried both latest firware from Telkomsa and Billion. Have used nmap and ssh from an external source and no joy.

I have not been able to open any ports. I have also thoroughly searched for solutions online, there are plenty of complaints but no fixes.
On top of this I have discovered that when trying wifi setup the router interface corrupts or shortens the wpa key and I have not been able to connect using this method... wep works for what little good that is.
All up I'm dissapointed with this router and looks like I'll have to replace it.

EDIT:
ARRRGHHHHH!!! I scream a long long long time! 2 weeks I've spent trying to open non default ports with this modem.

Where I come from, Australia, a 'shaped adsl account' is an account that when it has gone over it's quota of Gigabytes is restricted to a 64kB/s speed limit down from whatever it's adsl speed is.
Apparently over here a 'shaped adsl account' is an account that only has basic port 21-23 + 80 + 110 + 443 +1503 + 1720 access! No one told me this and to me it's such a ridiculous idea I never even considered it. Once again ARRRGHHHHH!!!
This is just so out of my experience. I have never heard of such a thing. I know of ISP's blocking port 25 and a few other ports for security reasons but an actual account that only has half a dozen accessible ports? WTF!!!? So I must apologize to billion and the 5102 modem as it appears it works fine. It's the stupid bloody ISP and their stupid bloody account setup that's been causing all my grief. Honestly, I feel like exploding!
On the plus side I suppose I've learnt an awful lot about ssh and modem/adsl configurations as I've reset everything half a dozen times... sheesh.
