I C No Multiplayer games in server list - why?

Right, I've seen this FAQ notice on the lucasarts website:

 

"STAR WARS JEDI KNIGHT II: JEDI OUTCAST

 

Technical Reference Guide - Details

 

Multiplayer: There are no games listed on the Join Server screen

 

If you are unable to detect any Jedi Outcast Servers after clicking on the 'Get New List' option from the "Join Server" screen, make sure to click on the 'Source' option at the top of the page so that it changes to 'Internet'. Once this is done, click on 'Get New List' again or 'Refresh List' and you should be able to view any available Servers that are currently running.

 

If you still do not see games listed when you are connected to the Internet and you have set the game's multiplayer 'Source' option to 'Internet' then you are most likely behind a security firewall. Playing behind a firewall requires that you open specific ports for the game information to pass through unhindered.

 

The specific UDP ports that Jedi Outcast uses are 28060, 28061, 28062, and 28070 through 28081 (inclusive.) These ports need to be opened in the Out-bound direction to join games. They will also need to be opened in the In-bound direction if you want players outside of your firewall to be able to join your dedicated or non-dedicated servers behind your firewall.

 

Please consult your network administrator or your router manufacturer for information on how to set up these ports.

...and Ive done the get new list and refresh server and select internet malarkey to no avail.

 

I have a cable 512k connection which happens to be behind a NAT (Network Address Translator) router and I wonder whether that is relevant. I rather doubt it and just for reference I have ensured that all the relevant ports are open.

 

Any suggestions would be welcome since I REALLY want to play the MP.

 

TIA,
