If the problem were with the ports, then the modem wouldn't have been able to negotiate any protocol at all, let alone fail finding a compatible one, right? 

I had the exact same problem after switching to a new ISP, after I had reinstalled my TCP/IP stack. A free call to my ISP's support line solved the problem in about 2 minutes (including the reboot) by checking the "Set this protocol to be the default protocol" box in the Network Control Panel. (Then again, the rest of my settings were correct...)
