  Do you have a default route on your AS400 to your Linksys Router?  I would
  first enable SSL for your AS400 Telnet server and open 992 not the unsecured
  23.  But either way, you will need to do one of the two:
  1. have a default route to your Linksys router
  2. NAT inbound at our Linksys router to your internal IP scheme.

  I would: ADDTCPRTE RTEDEST(*DFTROUTE)
            SUBNETMASK(*NONE) 
            NEXTHOP(LINKSYS router IP address)
