Note that I added the registry settings to assist in debugging not
as a means to solve this problem and I believe that abusing this setting
will only result in causing additional problems.
Please remember that NATs are not the problem. The problem is the
failure to maintain the UDP port mapping for a long enough period of
time. Organizations that come across network devices that are not
AFS friendly should file complaints to the manufacturers. Perhaps
someone could maintain a list of AFS friendly and AFS unfriendly
network devices. Fixing this problem should be as easy as installing
a new firmware on the device.
