Of course I cannot exclude it with 100% confidence. That said: _ host A has about 10 VPNs, only one is misbehaving, so I guess it's not ISP A; _ host B has an enterprise-grade contract, so they should not firewall anything; another one of the above VPNs connects to a different host which has the same type of contract with the same ISP and it works. Maybe it's the ISP or someone in between... I have no control over this. I'd like to exclude any local issue, about which I might actually do something. bye & Thanks av.
