You could try a probe from external using
tcptraceroute and check if it's being blocked somewhere on the way, but you'll probably get a definite answer if you call your ISP. That way you could also ask them if there's any other way for you to access your machine at home (sometimes they can get coaxed into opening a port).
SSH, FTP, and HTTP can use other ports if necessary, not sure about VNC, but from a security view I'd suggest to enable VNC only for localhost and using an SSH tunnel to connect.
