Which most likely means that the OS was broken to begin with. Of there is a
chance that SP2 is to blame but its probability is very small.

Why not? It is entirely possible that it will stop working again in SP3. The
whole thing with address reuse (not to mention the hole punching) is a hack

reliably write a driver and bypass most or all of the built-in TCP/IP stack.
