I'm with QWest, and they gave me a Wireless DSL Router Modem, so I have 
to use Port Forwarding on the Modem to get incoming connections to come 
to my computer.  In the past, I've had trouble with SuSE 9.2->9.3 to 
allow incoming connections of any kind to come in.  Even with the 
firewall disabled. (Not smart, but I wanted to prove that I was getting 
any incoming connections)  I went through the DSL Router Modem's 
configuration system several times, even telnet'ed into the thing, to do 
low level configuration, and nothing I would do would allow the 
connections to come through.  Now however, since I'm on Fedora Core 4 
(And Fedora Core 3 beforehand), the connections work perfectly.  I can 
get incoming connections with no problem, even with the firewall running 
securely locked down.
