Question ID: 567922
I have Verizon DSL through a Westell 6100 modem.  It's currently set
to factory default settings, and it's blocking all inbound traffic to
my system.  I've tried removing my router and dropping my Windows XP
firewall.  Running netstat, I can see the ports I want are open (8080,
for example).  Verizon advises me that, in my area, port 80 is the
only one they block.  Based on this, the problem seems to be somewhere
in my modem settings.

I'm unable to find a Westell 6100 manual or any advice on how to allow
traffic to flow straight through the modem.  Can you help me fix this
problem?

Thanks!
