No. That's weird...

Yes.

not according to the connection manager.

Under SQL native connection manager TCP/IP is enabled and it's set to 1433
TCP/IP is also enabled for the instance but the port is dynamic (set to 0)

No.

I can fire up a virtual machine and connect to the database using the
SQL server manager on a TCP connection ipaddr\instancename with SQL
server authentication. When I connect I go into the options and select
TCP as the protocol. It doesn't let me specify the port though so I
don't know what port it's using. I presume it's 1433
