The setting in LW Advanced>Firewalls should be set to UPnP if you use this.

Also, see OSX Firewall settings for Tiger. Though personally I keep my OSX firewall disabled. It conflicts with the firmware in my new router. And for OSX, a firewall is not really as necessary as those who use windows machines. I only use it if I am visiting 'suspect' web sites.

If your connection type to your ISP is wireless, then the firewall might be at their end.
