Comcast Internet Help

[passnu2]

Anyone that is using please chime in.

Okay I had there service with a provided/rented modem in the past. I now have my own modem.

I had a SBG900 Motorola modem/router and the firewall was so strict no one could figure it out. Port forwarding..you name it nothing would work.

So I exchanged it for a SB6120 today...I still have the same issues

1. No iTunes
2. No IM services (yahoo or MSN)
3. Not able to upload into photobucket or YouTube
4. Havent tried the kids online game yet.
5. the list goes on....

I have searched this to no tomorrow and I cant believe something so simple is a PITA!!!

I search and read that Comcast is blocking these ports. If that was the case I would think I wouldn't have been able to use these programs in the past unless they have something set up in the modem you rent from them?

Any feedback or suggestions would be appreciated.
