If your ISP won't give up the port, IMO, I would find another ISP.

When we established our ISP accounts, we explicitly ordered it to be
used for telnet sessions.  The only situation for us is that we have to
configure the router ourselves.  

Since the router uses NAT to hide our AS/400 and internal network, and
telnet forwarding is turned on, noone from the outside can configure the
router.  Personally I kind of like that, but a PC from the inside can
manage it.

The bottom line is that they worked with us.

I guess, in the simplistic way that I view things, it is a routing
problem and should be handled by the router without changes to any
servers or hosts.
