According to recent news reports, RCN doesn't allow Virtual Private Networks, which are essential for work-at-home customers such as I. They're also reported to have restricted the bandwidth available to sites that don't pay "peering fees" to talk to "their" users. My advice: if you want anything besides "approved" ports and web browsing from a cable company, get it in writing. YMMV. Bill Horne Disclaimer: I do not speak for Verizon.
