You don't need to open outbound ports on a router. The router doesn't block outbound traffic, only inbound.

And the windows firewall wont block you in this regard.

If you have any other software firewall than the on built into windows, get rid of it. You don't need it with a router.

I used to have a DLink 604+ and it was nothing but problems. The only support site I could find for it was http://www.expansys.com/f.aspx?i=104294

If you can afford it I would strongly recommend getting a new router.
