[not a] major Comcast issue... ()

by fluffy at 6:59 PM
I can understand Comcast filtering incoming ports 25 and 80, but 22? Being able to ssh home from work is exceedingly useful. Oops, never mind, it's something stupid with my 802.11n bridge. Argh. I blame Netgear instead.

This is weird though. I can ssh across the bridge on my local network just fine, but I can't if the connection originates from outside the network. However, I can ssh to a different box which is connected via 802.11n from the head end of the bridge. Gah.

7:50 Okay, got it working, somehow. Weird.

Incoming port 80 is required to get "NAT Type 2" on a Playstation 3. So is 443, which is going too far, IMO. No, Sony, you can't have that one; it's mine...

But presumably you can run sshd on a different port.

Turns out it's not that, it's something wrong with my crappy 802.11n bridge.
