Wink Saga continues

Called the ISP help desk in the middle of the night and talked to the tech. (these guys are lonelier than a Maytag repairman) After a few minutes talking to him he confirmed that the newer router has had a software upgrade that will block most normal p2p ports. He gave me a couple to try to use with the old modem. The first set of ports worked for a couple of months, then red lights again. Tried the next one on the list and back up. They now block me about one every 6 to 10 weeks. I just move on to other ports and then back in service. If my list ever goes bad, another midnight call should get me more.
