Just got the software, and I love it :)

Got 3 out of 4 games working, but I ran into this problem

[Sun Apr 04 18:00:39 2004] network: EthernetII IPv4 unknown(2f) to:192.168.0.3:34827 from:192.168.0.2:12289 'wrong protocol type'

Anyway to get this to forward?

Yes, there is a hidden option to tunnel other IPv4 protocols other then TCP/UDP/ICMP but 0x2F (47) is the GRE (Generic Routing Encapsulation) protocol. I find it hard to believe a game is trying to do anything related to routing. It would most likely be packets coming from a router/dsl or cable modem/etc and not related to a game.
Also the port numbers 34827 and 12289 are not really port numbers, they are just the first 4 bytes of the GRE packet, which is where TCP and UDP store the port numbers.
If you really want to forward all IPv4 protocolos, and not just TCP, UDP, or ICMP, you must set a value in the registry:
key: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Git
value: protos
type: REG_DWORD
data: 0xFFFFFFFF
