Cable & Wireless is not doing any port filtering, with the possible exception of specific customer requests.

Can anyone from these three carriers tell me if you're doing port blocking
on the Windows file/print ports (135-139, 445 & 593) ?
A client of ours (in the US), against our recommendation, still wants to
connect to their Exchange server in the UK without a VPN. We're not
blocking their IP#'s from anything but somewhere in between it's getting
blocked. We use C&W directly and Verio/Level3 through a peer.

Thanks!
