Telus Mobile Access

[GDH080239]

I'm trying to install PlayOn, a media server.

Actiontec router will not accept.

You will have to log into the router and port forward the required ports.  In order to get mobile access to work.

When I used PlayOn I barely used the mobile feature, it's just a web scraper and all the content is already available online. Unless you're using it to watch recorded or stored content I never see much need for mobile access.

Telus blocks a number of ports from external access. It is not possible, for instance, to operate a web server on a Telus residential account.  Does Play On list the ports it uses to access your network?
