Posted: Mon May 17, 2004 3:22 am Post subject: The ISP Port Blocking List |
|
|
Does your ISP block ports? I've compiled a list of known ISPs that are known to block ports. ISPs with an asterisk (*) next to their name could possibly be blocking ports temporarily.
Cox Communications
Verizon
Cableone
Charter Pipeline*
SBC DSL (In some locations; as they don't for me)
Roadrunner (Blocked in Midwest, NOT blocked in Tampa)
AOL DSL (In some locations)
Earthlink
Comcast (In some locations)
If your ISP blocks ports, but isn't listed here, please tell me. Hopefully, this can clear up some issues with people who can't get their website working. _________________ Bienvenidos!

Earthlink Cable does not block ports.
EDIT:
Earthlink cable is powered by time warner cable. Time warner cable doesn't block ports. I am not sure about earthlink cable powered by Bright House? _________________ How many forum members does it takes to change a light bulb?

Where do you live (state), and doesn't Earthlink also offer DSL? _________________ Bienvenidos! |

You've "compiled a list" by copying and pasting most of it from the first google hit ? Strange how it's exactly the same order for most of the list... The Earthlink info on there says it may have been temporary. It also appears to be a Blaster block list. Try searching for one that lists ISPs that block http servers.

Cox, Verizon, and Cableone don't seem to be on that list... but maybe that's just me. The list is intended to grow by people posting and adding their ISPs to the list, hence the "If your ISP blocks ports, but isn't listed here, please tell me." _________________ Bienvenidos! |
