| Re: [northeast] FIOS and Inbound Port 80 You can use a dynamic dns from someone like http://dyndns.org, and just run your server on port 81 instead of 80, then point your browser (or your active sync client/etc) to:
http://yourhost.dyndns.org:81
Thanks,
Josh

Thanks for the info so far. I was aware about the fios port blocking but there are lots of things you can do to live with it - if you know how. The "Requires Secure Connection" checkbox on your mobile specifies the client to use port 443/SSL. This is also one of the reasons non-standard ports really don't work well with ActiveSync. Take for example Nokia's Mail For Exchange client. It allows you to enter a non-standard port, but exchange on the back end gets screwed up connecting. | |

Yeah, I hear ya, I am probably going to go the ssl route. I did find a msft link about creating a virtual server in exchange and then re-direct kb817379

Villanova, PA | Re: [northeast] FIOS and Inbound Port 80 I was never able to get activesync to work over anything but port 80 and 443. I tried for a bit and then ran out of time. I couldn't find any other real success stories on the net either... one of the reasons I gave up. | |

| Just go to startssl.com and get yourself a free Certificate. Then use secure connections. It will use port 443 which isn't blocked, and it will keep your data more secure in the process.
The issue I had when setting up exchange on my residential fios connection was that VZ blocks incoming port 25. I had to sign up for a mail redirection service that will accept mail on port 25, then forward them on a nonstandard port to my exchange box. I lso use their dynamic dns service as well, which is free as long as they are the registrar of my domain name. | |

| Re: [northeast] FIOS and Inbound Port 80 Port 25 is open here on my resdintial account. In exchange I use authenticated SMTP outbound to outgoing.verizon.net. No reason to pay for a service in either direction.
My IP has lasted up to 6 months, but recently a lot less due to power issues (planned) that have taken things offline for several hours. | |

You can generate your own SSL as well via numerous 3rd party tools and through Windows Certificate Authority. The problem is that they are not trusted by a root CA and will likely cause issues on your device with security prompts. This will break synchronization, unless you hack the device's root store to accept the cert. | |

Not really a hack, in fact most of the enterprises I have worked for use their own PKI infrastructure. Installing certs on windows mobile is a one click operation.
I too am relaying my outgoing mail through Verizon's mail server, but not because the ports were blocked, but rather because gmail would not accept emails from my dynamic ip address.
I will have to check port 25 incoming here, but I am certain that a couple years ago when I switched to FiOS the port 25 blocking caused a disruption in my mail. | |

| Re: [northeast] FIOS and Inbound Port 80 according to verizon: at least in my area the lease is 24 hours and even when it releases they said Ill prolly get the same IP back anyways .....the only way I wouldnt is if the rare chance that someone else had their lease release at nearly the same instant and grab the IP I HAD lol
so even thought they promised dynamic IP it no way like DSL dynamic IP with DSL you could reboot comp and modem power off and wait 30 secs and get new IP :/ | |

| I cant test that anymore they made me send the router and the BIG set top box back when I had them switch me cat5e from ONT to comp....your in PA just call tech support and ask here there number: 888-553-1555
I know what your saying though I can see my IP in my software firewall and it hardly ever changes....its to their advantage to offer dynamic IP for a couple reasons:
1: we ran out of IP's about 2 years ago....so dynamic means we can still all connect
2. They dont have to buy as big a block of IP's if they offer dynamic
I would imagine that in the next year or so the lease times will drastically shorten and we'll get diff IP's more often just like the old DSL days....I've been a verizon customer for 6 years they rolled out DSL the same way...after 2 years they started releasing the IPs faster and even let us buy just internet w/o a credit card which they didnt do in the beginning....same as NOW with the FIOS | |

| Re: [northeast] FIOS and Inbound Port 80 said by devicemanage :Well If you look up you ip and assign it to your equipments outside interface and never reboot your equipment - theoretically shouldn't you have a static ip? Setting your router's WAN interface to static with your current IP will only work until your current DHCP lease expires. If the WAN interface is set to static, it will not request or renew a DHCP lease. When your current DHCP lease expires without being renewed your previously assigned IP address is available to be assigned to someone else.
Since a DHCP client (your router) will normally renew the DHCP lease at 1/2 of the lease time, your lease essentially never expires as long as you keep renewing. If you disconnect your router past the lease expiration, then you may get a different IP address. Also, if VZ reboots their DHCP server (rare) you would get a different IP address. | |

| Re: [northeast] FIOS and Inbound Port 80
DSL was PPPoE. My FIOS is PPPoE, and I can pull a different IP at the drop of a hat. IPs have been stickier on FIOS even with PPPoE, but any router disconnect, and I can get a new one.
DHCP provides a much stickier IP. If your router is always on, it will just renew the lease when the lease is half way through it's time. | |

Now when I configure iis for port 8008 and forward traffic from firewall to server, I can not get the site to load. Does anyone know of a port that works that I can try? Am I missing something here? You have to use 443. Forward that to your computer running exchange. | |

| Re: [northeast] FIOS and Inbound Port 80 said by devicemanage :I also have a website running on the same server. I then opened port 8008 in the firewall and forwarded it to the exchange/web server. I can't access the site, the domain host has the correct ip. From the LAN side it is normal to not have access to any servers when trying the Public IP or the FQDN as only the Private LAN IP should work. Try accessing the server from the WAN using a Web Proxy like www.guardster.com or by having a friend test it.
