Greets!
I am looking for a few opinions on finding the best ISP for my needs.
I am living at OrillaDelMar and currently use the shared system that was installed here by Codetel.

I am a power user, and require the most reliable and stable bandwidth possible. The speed is not really the issue so far, and I am battery backed up, so the DR power roller coaster is also not a problem. What is really annoying is how Codetel is blocking certain ports and throttling bandwidth. I do have router access and have forwarded the required ports and even tried DMZ, but Codetel seems to have many roadblocks in place. I have managed to get around this somewhat by using protocol obfuscation, but this is far from perfect.

So my question is... are there alternatives to Codetel? If so, which ones might provide the best solutions for running a VPN or Webserver?

Thanks,
Brad
