Huck have you called your ISP and asked why they are blocking the port? Sometimes they can unblock it for you so you don't have any problems. Just don't say "I need port #### unblocked so I can download music from LimeWire" LOL because they may shut you down completely. Just say something like, "I am using a VPN through work that uses port #### and since you upgraded your equipment I can't access my work information. Can you unblock it for me?" 9 times out of 10 they won't have a problem unblocking it as long as you have a good excuse. I know this becuase I used to for for Road Runner ISP and would work close with the Internet Security and Abuse people who handle which ports are blocked. Anyways hope that helps you out! Lemme know!
