| Dr. VPNlabs Question (Archived) |

I'm currently trying to set up a VPN with a
coworker. We both are cable modem users. We just
found out that our ISP is choking out VPNs. Is
there a way around this? How can they shut down
VPNs. Is the port hardcoded for VPNs or can we
change it for our use on a as needed basis? We
just want to get this to work. |

Robert, Unfortunately,
cable companies do have
the power to block VPN
traffic. For MS vpns
they may be clocking is
port 1732 and the GRE
protocol. If you are
using IPSEC VPNs they may
be blocking protocols 50
& 51. We'll look into
workarounds and post to
VPNlabs.org.

ood luck,
