B3 not seen in all ip- networks

Hello all,

Strange problem. I am in a upc/chello network starting e.g with 1.x.x.x
My friends are also in the upc/ chello network but cannot reach my B3 ( even made thr B3 DMZ).
Other friends from outside the upc/ chello network do not have problems in finding my B3.

I think the problem is upc/ chello but before i start a real fight with them i have a question for the forum.

Does a standart B3 have the possebility to block ip- adresses if they access the B3 too often.

Rene

Hi Rene,

I'd guess UPC has explicitly configured their network to not allow routeback to other UPC customers. They'll most likely have done this to prevent customers from seeing each others Windows shares and probably don't care that this also blocks traffic that people might actually want. In fact, they may even like that this also prevents their customers from exchanging torrents - quite a hot item in "free" Netherlands.

AFAIK a standard B3 has no "hammering" protection.
