Sky are blocking ports, I have proof!!
My mate came over yesterday, he is a computer wizard, he does our internet at work, makes codes ect.. He knows what he is doing.
He put transmission on my QNap NAS via QPKG and the port is 51413.
When he left the port was fully open green light, and when I came home today I find that my download is going at 1kbs, And tried downloading something that I knew I would get a fast speed. and nothing.. Wouldnt even start, something like 2000 seeds and 500 leech.
I tried port checker and now its saying its closed.
Anyone know of this? I find it funny that it was all open yesterday, I have done nothing and its closed now.
I have a max package ect.. So why are they doing this?
Cheers

Re: Sky are blocking ports, I have proof!!
Sky dont block any ports
What they do have though is ropey routers that upnpd crashes on
and subsequently them open ports close up
until a reboot of the router

Do you know its taken me months to get a port open for transmssion and it was the upnp.
How often does it re-set ?
I got to thank you so so much, it was driving me crazy
