Ports blocked by RCN
I recently inquired RCN (my Internet provider) about their policy on blocking port. I didn't really expect an answer, but after a period of silence they responded:
In fact, the reason I posted this inquiry to begin with was that I noticed that port 443 (https) is now being blocked, or so it seems. However, from their reply it seems like no. Well, maybe I am wrong somewhere. In any case, it is good to al least have an official list from RCN.
Port 80 inbound
Port 25 inbound
Port 25 outbound
Port 135
Port 137
Port 138
Port 139
Port 445
