<Hello Robert and Jason, thanks for input.
<
<This was a damn nightmare, trying to solve and also having clients users
on
<my back.
<
<1. Rebooted server, didn't help
<2. Reran CEICW, still no go.
<3. Checked router port forwarding, removed them and added them again still
<no go.
<4. Internally worked fine which lead me to believe some issue at the front
<door.
<5. GRC showed all ports open....
<
<Spoke to ISP incase ports being blocked for some reason ( for UK users it
is
<BT with their 2700HG.... before anyone slates it the business hub I have
<found very user friendly and works very well)
<
<After 2 hours at first line of support got to Router support desk and 5
mins
<later fixed !!!
<
<There was some firmware update done ( now that opened another can of
<worms... what are they doing updating firmware without my permission !!)
<
<
<This update caused some issues and had to get into
<http://routeripaddress/management
<
<Firewall Settings on lefthand side, Advanced settings, Under attack
<detection untick all except Miscellaneous (if you untick this internet
<doesn't work) I was also asked to go into Local Network, Configure and
<untick 'Display alert when another router is connected to this router'
this
<seems to be stopping internet access.
<
<It seems this setting is stopping any remote access configurations.
<
<Hope the above helps any other UK BT clients but now have to sort this
issue
<about BT updating firmware without permission and what about an updated
<firmware.
<
<Checking other BT clients their firmware hasn't been updated so Im just
<waiting for many calls.... ;-(
<
<Once again thanks to Jason and Robert for their assistance...
