BT Network or Home Hub Blocking ESP

Has anyone had any problems with the BT Home Hub or Network, where it
seems that they have started to block IP protocol 50 (Encapsulating
Security Payload) Part of the IP SEC group of protocols? I had
aproblem with a 220V initially, however I had backed up a working
config to XML and after reloading it the problem went away. Some
people I know who are using the new Home Hub have not been able to
connect at all and only a hardware change has resolved the problem.

A Colleague of mine found that updating the firmware on one of the
Voyager models fixed the problem. However I believe that BT may no
longer be usinig the Voyager, since as I understand, they have a
limited life expectancy (the 220V so I am told after a year or so may
have problems) and my replacement 'is in the post'. This doesn't
account for the problems with the Home Hub. I have tried configuring
the specific IP filters to no avail. So i am of the opinion that its
an option not available in the GUI interface. I will laugh if my
replacement is a home hub of some sort!
