Port 80 missing 1

[rninja]

I am having a strange problem here...
My port 80 is not being seen on the WAN side of my network, I tried viewing my website away from my network and could not view it. I can however view it from the inside of my network.

I do have a NAT/switch from Linksys but I know that my access controls and packet filtering is set properly because I entered several port ranges and all ports were available (including ssl), except port 80! I even went to

and tried the shields up, only to find that the port 80 was stealth!

I don't get this problem.. does anyone have a suggestion?>


Thanks for any help in advance!!!

Hi,
Welcome to the wonderful world of blocked ports. Many ISP's are now blocking port 80 to stop individuals from running web servers. They make alot of money with hosting, and dont' want competition. I too found this out the hard way. Call your ISP and complain, threaten to switch, and maybe they will relent. Your packets get dumped at their end...
Best of luck,
PT
