UDP & TCP port : 88
UDP & TCP port : 2074
UDP & TCP port : 3074

I have found that the issue tends to be with your uprate speed. Several Xbox Live Friends on NTL have reported the similar problems
May I also add that if you go down the manual port forwarding route then you should really disable UPnP on your router (which also means fiddling around with port forwards for any other UPnP aware apps). If you can connect to Xbox live, join online games and chat to other people then opening ports should not be required.

Try connecting your Xbox directly to your STB without the router in circuit and see if you still have the problem.
