Rich People

Hmm how do you convice someone who appears to have more money than sense that they are WRONG...
Well I have done just that today..
Hmm now take 1 standard router not specially programmed to allow specific ports in to you LAN and then take another similar router that is configured to allow those ports + appears to be a hell of a lot easier to set up but for some reason it don't let us send info back to our HQ from that site lol..
See client has a problem when he's sunnin' himself somewhere in Spain, he wants to able to check up on what's happening at his house via the net, which he can do all the kit is in place and works - proven, works on his widescreen wireless blah blah laptop, proven... Works on a god darn dial-up connection in spain, don't work when he hooks in to his nice BB connection - reason his firewall / router is blocking
But no i can't be, we get him on to our site and prove this is the case, simple he shuts up and don't wanna talk about it no more.. GOD these days are far and few but good - now all Muggings here has to do is erm find the manual for the Router (I have the model & maker) and read it..
Manual found on website, grabbed via DOS based FTP lol gotta love the old ways of doing stuff... posted on to my "webspace" on the other pc so I can retrieve it at work tomorrow just incase boss asks.. (I know he will)
