If you have Windows XP, the Windows firewall might be enabled. You can check this in Control Panel->Network Connections->Local Area Connection. If the Windows firewall is disabled, or you don't have Windows XP, you may have another program such as ZoneAlarm or Norton Internet Security. You will have to find out how to check this yourself, because every configuration differs.

There is no option in JJ2 that causes this. The fact that it isn't working means that something is blocking the connection. It may be your Internet Service Provider (ISP) that blocks it, but it is more than likely a local setting that you have overlooked. I can't help you further; read your router manual to make sure you opened the ports correctly, and check your firewall settings again.
