I'm just trying to drill you through all the problems I have had and seen - I'm not using DMZ host on my Linksys , just redirecting ports.
Maybe if you tried the newest binaries from here:
http://www.eqemulator.net/download.php
but you would also need to read the changelogs and source the lines recomended. There are at least three changelogs that have lines to be sourced
The log you attached does not provide enough info.
When you first start up world.exe, does it mention an internet IP as a world address? also the World Zone TCP connections are from your LAN IP and not 127.0.0.1? In fact , in the World.exe window, there should be no mention of "localhost" or "127.0.0.1"
