I do believe WinMx default ports are 5100 TCP and 5101 UDP. This depends on the connection type you choose when you install. Or you can change them as TankGirl said. I have found that I have to have both ports mapped in my firewall for best results. I suggest port 0 as a last resort. Winmx has very poor transfer reliability and you will get a ton of timeouts and less search results on port 0.
Also pay attention to which server you are connecting to. the names are similar but not the same if it is the same one that give you trouble try to delete it. I have had to do this before to get a decent connection. You can get it back with an update.
