Hi,
I have one device (an IP phone) on an AirRouter (based on linux, uses iptables).
it still is translating ports in the 16000 range all the way down to 1025, which breaks RTP (it apparently doens't have very good SIP/SDP
conn-tracking on it).
That's why I was a bit puzzled as to why it keeps translating the ports down to the low 1000s. I had thought it was the default to preserve it.

Hi,
Is there a way to disable port translation during SNAT so that traffic
originates from the same external port as it did internally?
When possible this is already the default when you don't specify a port
range nor --random. From the man page :
--to-source ipaddr[-ipaddr][:port-port]
which can specify a single new source IP address, an inclusive
range of IP addresses, and optionally, a port range (which is
only valid if the rule also specifies -p tcp or -p udp). If no
port range is specified, then source ports below 512 will be
mapped to other ports below 512: those between 512 and 1023
inclusive will be mapped to ports below 1024, and other ports
will be mapped to 1024 or above. Where possible, no port alter-
ation will occur.
Sometimes the source port must be translated in order to avoid a
conflict with an existing connection to the same destination which
already uses that source port.
