Frankly, I do not know if Megacable has rules against web servers, but I do intend to ask if I can't get this going! As for the ports, that is why I chose the 8181 port to test; it didn't seem to be used by anything well known. The Cisco Cable Modem/Router has this security page where I can change things:

SPI Protection: Default is "Low". Other settings are OFF, Medium, High. I have tried OFF, it did not help.

IPv6 Firewall Protection: ON

Filters-
Block fragmented IP packets OFF
Block Port Scan Detection OFF
IP Flood Detection OFF

Allowed Services-
"No Ports Restricted" (That is Cisco's terminology, not mine)

Block WAN Requests
Block Anonymous Internet Requests OFF (Default is ON)
----------------------------------------------------------
My LAN router is Tomato firmware based. Except for the ICMP Ping, which I do not block for this effort, everything is default:

Firewall
Respond to ICMP ping Yes (Default is No. I allow ping so the remote person helping me might be able to see a response from my system)
Limits per second-
ICMP = 1 request per second
Traceroute = 5 request per second

Enable SYN cookies = NO (Default)
Enable DSCP Fix = YES Fixes Comcast incorrect DSCP (Default)

NAT
NAT loopback = ALL (Default)
NAT target = MASQUERADE (Default)

Multicast-
Enable IGMPproxy = NO (Default)
Enable Udpxy = NO (Default)
Enable client statistics-
Max clients = 3 (Default)
Udpxy port = 4022 (Default)
--------------------------------------------------------------------

I have left things in default as much as possible.
