Qwest cable services are firewalled for all incoming ports.

Cox firewalls the normal ports 25,80 etc...but if you have a redirector
site, then you can setup a www server on another port....

If you need default ports for email/etc then you would need to purchase
the Cox Business service.....otherwise you could use the home service with
non-standard ports and fetchmail............................

Cox Home-service = ~32kbps upstream

If available in your area, DSL would offer higher upstream bandwidth.

or T1's are down to ~$500.00/month........
