port blocking

ok had a hunt around but cant find any info, so does anyone know if NTL block any incomiing or outgoing ports?
Basically Im trying to get Star Wars Galaxies to run and I just want to eliminate that as a possible problem.
Anyone else had any problems with SWG if you have managed to import it?

Edit, this is what SWG tries where I am failing, though havent confirmed with net log yet:

Star Wars Galaxies Launchpad and Patch Servers
A TCP connection is initiated from the LaunchPad client port > 1023 to patch.station.sony.com port 7000.

A UDP connection is initiated from the LaunchPad client port > 1023 to sdlaunchpad1.station.sony.com and sdlaunchpad2.station.sony.com port range 3016-3021 and 9700-9703.

NTL dont block ports do you have a firewall ?

if you do have you made sure the ports in use allow connections ?

Firewall is off, router has been disconnected adn Im connecting directly to modem. If theres no blocking I can only see it being at the server end so I get the fun of contacting Sony CS - sigh.
