From the description of how you connect I am guessing you live in a apartment complex and it sounds like your ISP is a PPoE service. If you are in a apartment I believe there should be a router where the trunk line is split to provide service to the different units. I really am not sure about this but if there is a router some where it could have a NAT firewall in it. And if there has been any complaints about slow Internet service where you live they could have blocked file sharing ports. You may want to try some different ports. I have read where some people are having some success on port 80.
