They do block Windows ports, but they don't block 25 outbound. I use 25 outbound alot to other smtp servers, and it works. They block 80 yes, but 443 is functional. > My phone is another story, at one point they thought I cancelled my > phone service, then I called them and screamed, and that was fixed, then > the voicemail and "extras" had to be reprogrammed into the router my > phone went into... add another 2 days.

I dropped them and went with Vonage. I already have the 'net speed, why not use it :P Free long distance throughout the US and Canada is a very nice thing, saves me lots of money. (parents and relatives are in MD, friends throughout the US) I end up paying about the same, with extra features. The only reason I did this is because no matter what I do, moving-wise, I still have the same configuration. (not to mention my phone is connected over 802.11g to my network now muahaha) --Dan -- "There are no wise few.
