If you are going out via a router then you may have a firewall without knowing it. Nearly all home broadband routers have something called nat built in (called ipchains/IP Masquerading by Linix peeps

) . Without a nat you would only be able to connect one pc.
If you have a router with nat then you need to set up port forwarding or put the machine with BT on a dmz.
