Tell us clearly what ports are open to what device in your set up please
The modem is a SpeedStream 5360 Ethernet ADSL modem (by Efficient Networks, DSL connection via SBCglobal.net or whatever their name is now with ~1.2 Mbps download and ~275 Kbps upload) with no routing. The only set up I do is plug it in, plug in the input telephone line, the output ether net cable and turn it on.
The ports on the SMC are set as follows (see also the screen capture
here:

I'm not sure that answers all the questions, but that's as close as I can come now.
