Can't connect in Diablo II with Earthlink DSL

My friend just got Earthlink DSL, but now when he tries to get online with Diablo II it drops his connection.

Running any kind of firewall?

More on that....

If you are running a switch, chances are you will need to open some ports to get it to run correctly. Diablo sends on one port and receives on another. If one port is open (say the send port) and the other is closed, the game will time out.
