Zone Alarm is probably in a paranoid mode and blocking "unknown" packets even on the open ports...and only letting "known" packets through on those ports.

If you can, flash the modem's bios and try to access its settings then. You may be able to put it in DMZ mode even if not bridged mode.

I mean the modem in DMZ modem, assuming you cannot figure out how to put it in bridged mode.

Your router should not be in DMZ mode except as an absolute last resort...and then you SHOULD have a software firewall enabled on your computer and configured correctly. AND you'd better configure the firewall BEFORE putting it in DMZ mode!
