Office Router: WWW works, FTP/Telnet not

Question:

We connected a Novell Netware network using two OR's on either side and two
baseband-modems on a leased-line to our Unix network and thus the Internet.
The WWW-traffic comes through at enormous speeds, but FTP traffic and Telnet
won't work. We installed *no* filters at all however!

It seems that the FTP and Telnet ports are rejected somehow. Netscape says:
"Contacting host..." and then nothing at all. The addresses are being
resolved just fine.

Has anyone encountered this same problem?
