Hi Robert, well when the port is open ie, 40001 tcp, then there is no 
problem to get internet connectivity with the lan tcp properties setup 
correctly, as that is the port that usually closed on the router to 
prevent this. I cant comment on what internet traffic was passed, but if 
the port is open, then it will be available. ID-1 rf signal conditions; 
tx/rx to the repeater AD module will also effect the connectivity of course.
The usual tcp properties are;

Setup ID-1 for Data Operations to the Internet
Open the CS window
YOUR Enter the call sign of the repeater
(UR)    VK3RWN

(RPT1) VK3RWN A

(RPT2) VK3RWN G

MY (your callsign here) < must be registered and the ip* identified from 
personalinfo page in your registration gateway website login lookup.

The computer used with the radio must have the LAN tcp properties 
manually set;
 * fixed IP address* assigned to the call sign.

*= 10.#.#.# (whatever your callsign ip is)
Netmask 255.0.0.0
GW 10.0.0.1
DNS 10.0.0.1

With all this, good signal strength and 40001 tcp open, there is no 
reason it should not work, all else being normal.
