playstation 2 ics ports

my little bro just got a ps2, but in order for it to work with our ics certain ports must be opened....i found the ports for madden 2003 on ea's site, but other games such as nfl 2k3 have no such listings...I dont have a true firewall, so i can dmz it the ip assigned to the ps2, i just have windows xp ics. Is there a free windows NAT program that forwards all ports? If not, does anyone know how to forward a range of ports, or even all of them through windows xp ics?

 
I'm assuming you're doing a daul NIC config with ICS, am I correct. If so it shouldn't be a problem unless you're using the XP firewall (ICF)(which is garbage in my opinion).

During the PS2 Network Adaptor Beta testing I dual NICed my XP box and found very quickly that XP's ICF blew and had to disable it. Now, I'm using a router and firewall combo and have the appropriate ports forwarded for Madden 2003 (which is the only game I play online for the PS2). You could get a router and set the PS2 up as the DMZ host considering the PS2 has nothing to hack really.
