Your router has a firewall in this case as well
winmx ports need to be enabled in the router, there is usally a http page to
enable router settings
dont contact your ISP until last, it is very likely that p2p breaks the
terms of use, the cable modem is very unlikely to have a firewall of any
type

If at first you dont succeed
try try try again
If at first you do succeed
try not to look surprised
