My experience with Maxis Home Fiber with custom GPON ONU SFP Stick.

First, I can override TM OLT bandwidth limit (Force 2.5G) and managed to reduce Bufferbloat that TM limit to make other ISP look worst... so I can do more fair testing...
maxis still using TM's BTU right? so how do you tweak that thing? login using admin privilege?

Maxis did not filter or block any port! I managed to host own Mail Server (Incoming POP3, IMAP, SMTP) at home! also done little tutorial!

How to host own Mail Server:
https://gist.github.com/Anime4000/59ade3017...9f4e8c6dc032681

Unlike TM, they filter and block many ports, I tried Incoming POP3 and connection never received, only outgoing.
agree, back in the day when around the world too paranoid about anonymous sendmail, TM with their brilliant think tank come with an idea to just block the incoming port-25. and it stays until now.
another funny thing is, they still blocking outbound port 6667. laugh.gif
when there is too many n00b users subscribing the internet and their modem/router has ssh access and they are too n00b to configure it, TM help them by blocking inbound access to port-22. of course it affect all users.

Yes, TM kind worst for now, hosting mail server is not allowed, only simple stuff, that's why TM afraid to give symetrical speed, or at least 2:1 speed ratio, instead giving 5:1 speed ratio, upload always slow.

you can anyway, by subscribing the "corporate" version. of course with a huge monthly package price. tongue.gif

AWS blocks incoming and outgoing SMTP. You'd have to request from them with proper details for them to lift the block.

thats why do not subscribe from them. there are many vps provider out there that doesn't care about that. i subscribe one of the cheap kvm vps and doesn't filter any of my tcp/udp ports. its up to me to filter it using my own firewall. icon_rolleyes.gif and thats a different between a service provider for a 1337 vs service provider for a n00b. cool2.gif
