Thread: Does Vodafone filter ports

Hi guys,
Can anyone please confirm if you can access VPN network with Vodafone 3G connection from your mobile/tablet/PC, or if you are experiencing any port filtering by Vodafone.

I'm having two Airtel prepaid and postpaid connection with EDGE(no 3G yet) and very recently I can no longer access any VPN network, it used to work I could connect to a VPN network few months back, seems they are blocking the GRE/PPP LCP protocols or they may have misconfigured NAT. I'm fed up of speaking to the csr and listening to their scripted replies, most doesn't know what VPN is, one of them even told me it is not required: leh

So thinking of switching/MNP to Vodafone if you guys can confirm.
Vodafone HSDPA signal is good here even indoors.

By the way I can access VPN with my BSNL 3G no port blocking/filtering but only downside is their signal strength its horrible.

Got a VMC activated sim from a friend (lucky me) , network is excellent and yeah VPN is working fine no problem whatsoever even reliance has no problem either.

Had to tinker little bit with apn in my Streak to get an H
