   JS>service   
   JS>some years back and found that they did indeed block certain ports.   
      
     In using a utility from portforward.com, it shows the port is open in the   
   router...but canyouseeme.org can't see it (the request times out). So, I'm   
   guessing they are blocking the port.   
      
     I can poll other systems just fine with IREX, but they can't connect to   
   me...and that's the rub.
