I suspected this to be the case.

How did you forward all ports?
I never specify a port-range for port-forwarding, but only specific ports.

I am not familiar with the router you are using, but is there an option to 
specify a specific port?

Alternatively, you could try using port-forwarding/tunneling using SSH-
connections. Your LDAP-client should be able to hitch a ride over that 
connection if you set up the tunnel.

If you google for "ssh portforwarding" you should find some examples and 
explanations for this.
