Hey everyone, long time user, very long time since visiting. *;-)
I am currently stationed in Iraq on a military base using a vile network called Sniperhill, it is the only one allowed on the base. This is not a military network but a contractor supplied network the military oversees. They apparently are using some sort of proxy server that we connect to for our internet. I have no trouble using VOIP, IMs, browsing, iTunes, etc but when it comes to any sort of gaming application such as Fantasy Grounds I hit a brick wall. I have tried other VTs such as MapTool and EpicTable and I run into the same issue.
I currently run a local Firewall via Symantec Endpoint Protection and I have set up the port forwarding in the system (I am not a FG newb after all) and have attempted connecting with the firewall completely off. So I think the real problem is the Proxy folks. I have spoken to them and they seem to be 'tards about it. I have continued to pester them but so far they have not helped at all. Soooo, I thought I would hit up my old friends at Fantasy Grounds and see if they might know of a work around.
Thanks in advance!
