First Welcome

It would help a lot if you tell us what program you need the ports for. And what it is you are trying to do.

the ports are for dc++

Ok

ports are 1412 or 412 for tcp you dont need udp well you dont on my client. Make sure you have opened them in your fire wall and your router if you have one. I am logged in to dc++ at the moment so i can tell you NTL do not block the ports.

Have a look at this

NTL used to block the ports used by worms/virus (139,145) but since the proxies came back these are no longer blocked at the servers.

Also

Outbound:

TCP: 411 This is the default port most hubs operate on. They also operate on other ports in attempts to bypass ISPs who block port 411 traffic. TCP: 1025-32000 DC++ & NMDC will use any outgoing port for file transfers and searches. This is the default behavior of any program establishing an outgoing connection.

Inbound:

TCP: 1025-32000 Unless a port is specified in the active mode port, DC++ & NMDC will use any available port in that range for establishing file transfers. Searches are also returned from the hub on a port the client sets up (passive mode searching). UDP: 1025-32000 Unless a port is specified in the active mode port, DC++ & NMDC will use any available port in that range for returning search results

They were/are blocked within the config of the modem were they not?

Those ports will not stop DC++ from working.
