Yes, all firewalls or routers or switches has a way of unblocking ports.
Otherwise, what good are they? Don't get a hub. It will slow you down and you
would be vulnerable to collisions.

that is the case I prefer getting a hub or a switch instead of a
firewall, I don't want all the ports to be blocked...i kidna want to
have control over what is and what is not blocked. thanks
