Added Note: I do have port fowarding setup on my router for OpenSim. 
Port Range Forwarding 9000 - 9100 on both TCP and UDP for 192.168.1.100 
(which would be the LAN IP for my Windows computer) and I have an 
additional Port Range Forwarding set up for 9000 - 9100 on both TCP and 
UDP for 192.168.1.122 (Linux computer)

port setups)

I've also tried it with uPnP and/or DMZ enabled with no luck.
