Then...
If nothing else works, then you should simply resort to calling customer service. Ask them:
I have a 3Com OfficeConnect Ethernet Hub 4C. This is blocking certain ports disallowing me to host on a multiplayer game. Is there anyway to free up ports on my hub?
If they ask you to go into more detail then:
The game is Jazz Jackrabbit 2 and it requires ports 10052-10054 for users to connect.
I didn't notice that you had a hub until now. A hub is LIKE a router, it allows you to share internet connections (including DSL...maybe cable.) I'll ask someone who has a hub if you can free ports on it.

The AntiMcDonalds forums have turned into the JCF. Now includes the "spontaneous corrupt" feature.
(That was a fanchy smanchy way of saying that the forums are broked. AND IT'S ALL YOUR FAULT TOO.)
