@deutrino What ISP do you have that blocks port 80?
@swiley Comcast.
@deutrino Are you using one of the firewalls that they rent out? If so that would likely be why. I have comcast and regularly ssh/http back to my house.
@swiley Yeah, it's a terrible gateway, but it's not my house - I only have so much influence here regarding swapping it out for something decent. It would be useful to figure this stuff out anyway tho as blocking low ports is pretty common for US ISPs, or used to be anyway.
@deutrino ah, that's not fun.
@swiley Yeah, the thing boots my phone off the wifi at random multiple times a day and is generally buggy and horrible. I have a Surfboard in a box but so far haven't convinced the homeowner to set it up with a router etc. There's an opportunity in a few weeks when we move most of the networked gadgets to a different room in the house though.
