Robert,
RW>I have Comcast and use binkp on port 24554. I doubt Comcast would
RW>block that port even on the residential service (I have the starter
RW>business package here).
While I don't have Comcast Business, I do have a part of their high speed
internet with good upload/download speeds. I would think if the port was
blocked, that nothing would come in, or go out.
Marc Lewis was in my system, remotely, on Friday. He fixed the issue with the
"ping problem" (I had the router set to block all anonymous connects). Later
this weekend, he'll try to see why Internet Rex isn't responding.
I'm also trying the echomail tossers with GT Power BBS software, because the
netmail routing with Virtual Advanced is screwed. If a test netmail message
goes out OK, then except for a couple of networks that are doing QWK
Networking, I'll go back to FTN.
Of course, if my internet is out, or if thunderstorms are in my area,
everything is offline...as lightning dances around here like an ungrounded
Faraday cage during thunderstorms.
