netgear mr814 4pt + 802.11b router

i've been trying to figure it out for over a month, i've googled, i've searched high and far, and i've searched the router setup page dozens of times. i cannot find out why. i cannot connect to ftps on high ports, can't irc, and probably any other tcp/ip. i've been using shells to communicate with the world. icmp is also blocked. i've tried linux which i'm in now, and winxp, so it's hardware related.
