Did you also open those ports in Windows Firewall? Do you have a DSL or Cable? Do you have a modem/router combo from you ISP that the Linksys is plugged into? If so you will have to port forward those ports in your modem/router combo and turn your Linksys E1000 into an access point and disable the DHCP server.

Go to this website to scan your ports to see which ones are open.

What is the IP address for the internet side of your router?
