Hi, I am looking for a new ISP as my current ISP 'tiscali' are .... far from excellent. Basically I use the internet for movies/music and web browsing. I also have an ICS with my PS3. Lately I've been play COD4 online through the PS3 and have had real trouble getting online at certain times. I investigated into this and have now found out that tiscali have been blocking certian ports on people's connections so they cannot play certain games on the ps3.
I'm interested in your broadband but would just like to know if you will be doing the same as them. I would appreciate a response to this, I've got my MAC code already so just looking around to see whats what.
Many thanks.

Welcome to the forums Black8704.
You'll be pleased to hear the we don't block any ports on the broadband network so online gaming of any sort should work fine.
Let us know if you have any other questions and I'll do my best to answer them.

Hi Black 8074 welcome to the forums Freeola as an ISP in my opinion are really good. If you have a problem its usually sorted by a quick phone call, to a UK based centre, staff are friendly and polite. As with all ISPs there will be times when things go pear shaped though and often not the fault of the ISP but BT who own the lines, but I can recommend Freeola we have been with them now for a good few years and have not looked back. As to port blocking, we will have to see if we can get a staff moderator to answer that one.
