Port forwarding broke all of a sudden

Hi,

I need some ports forwarded to my PC (ZyXEL router) so I added my PCs IP and the port to NAT & also let it pass through the router firewall and my firewall & all worked fine.

About 2 nights ago I checked and it wasn't working anymore, I triple checked the settings and even tried forwarding with another port but none of it would work.

I have not touched the router in ages, so none of the settings have been changed.

I just tested it on my bros PC using the same settings (different IP of course), the port was open for about a minute but then closed itself again :(

I have tested with the routers firewall down and it doesn't make a difference, I have also tested with my own firewall down as well and something still refuses to let me have the port :(

Any idea what could be wrong please?

Thanks,
Craig.
