Xfinity blocking my port forwards
I have set up a port forward on pot 4040 for my Subsonic server. Packets are being forwarded to my linux box. Nevertheless, Xfinity is snuffing out my connection, seeing it as threat for some reason. Why are they doing this? And how can I get them to stop this? When set up the packet forward I really meant it.

Disable the Xfi Advanced Security feature for now as a work-around. It's buggy ! And there is currently no way for an end-user to whitelist anything;

Looks like that worked. Thank you. I had never installed the app to my phone. I always administered everything through a browser while on the linux box plugged right into the modem. That setting is no where to be found if you go through a browser.

Glad that worked for you ! It was a firmware update that was silently pushed to all their gateway devices.
