Just out of curiosity, what would the Xbox report if you tested without 
Monowall? or some other router?  (i.e. cable/DSL modem --> Xbox only or 
cable/DSL modem --> other NAT router --> Xbox)

Maybe it's looking for a more open incoming connection . . . . . . does the 
"moderate" connection restrict any features?
