Windows Homer Server and Providers blocking the required ports

Hi All,

Do any of you have a list of the ISP that are allowing Windows Hom
Server to use ports 80, 443 and 4125.

I'm with TalkTalk and I can't seem to access my WHS PC remotely and
think it might be TalkTalk blocking these ports.

Cheers

CA

I'm on Demon - no problem with incoming connections on port 80 - and
others.

If you connect using a router, check you've set up the correct
port-forwarding rules.

You could just setup some port forwarding and use 81 inbound for web,
8443 for https etc etc, and then nat - eg. external on :81 goes to
server on :80. I've been doing that on UKonline for a while as they
block 25 & 80. Plus it makes it just a slight bit more awkward for
your average joe snooper to sniff around and find stuff.
