hub is maybe typo, you mean ADSL modem/router? 

I have server behign ADSL router (Fujitsu
from So-net). I have simple BUFFALO hub between modem/router and my server.
One advice - change IP of the server to be something outside
of DHCP IPs provided by the modem/router - just to be sure your server will 
not conflict with some other computer.
Maybe something like 192.168.0.100 or similar.
If your masq/port forwarding is enabled the problem is maybe
in your cabels. Do you use cross-cable for direct server connection? Are all 
lights on connected to the hub cables lighting?
