Use Fibertel (Argentina) service\r\n2. Try accessing any multiplayer server using port 5000 .. unable to connect\r\n3. Confirm by connecting OK via ADSL modem on port 5000 or connecting OK to temporary mpserver running ports 5001, 5002, 5003 ....... http://forum.flightgear.org/viewtopic.php?f=27&t=24754 Topic gives full detail, Fibertel confirmed to the user: \"actually, our network uses port 5000, it _should_ be open but we can not guarantee that it is fully functional\"\r\n\r\n  User was able to connect OK to a temporary mpserver on ports: 5001, 5002, 5003, 5507\r\n\r\nIt looks as if either Fibertel is using UDP 5000 internally to their network or is blocking UDP 5000 traffic in error ( TCP Port 5000 is part of UPnP protocol )  \r\n\r\n It's possible other users are affected un-knowingly. \r\n\r\n Request one of our mpservers switch to a port other than 5000, please !\n\n_Original issue: http://code.google.com/p/flightgear-bugs/issues/detail?id=1617_"},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/pedromorgan/flightgear-issues-test/issues/comments/78795389","html_url":"https://github.com/pedromorgan/flightgear-issues-test/issues/1616#issuecomment-78795389","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/pedromorgan/flightgear-issues-test/issues/1616","id":78795389,"user":{"login":"pedromorgan","id":123932,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/123932?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/pedromorgan","html_url":"https://github.com/pedromorgan","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/pedromorgan/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/pedromorgan/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/pedromorgan/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/pedromorgan/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/pedromorgan/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/pedromorgan/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/pedromorgan/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/pedromorgan/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/pedromorgan/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2015-03-13T04:35:26Z","updated_at":"2015-03-13T04:35:26Z","body":"_From [emili...@gmail.com](https://code.google.com/u/115676812041459464772/) on December 12, 2014 18:13:36_\n\nPort 5000 is used by many other \"things\", and if you read that wiki page carefully you'll notice that neither Flightgear or UPnP are considered \"official\" usage. Same applies to the other ports in the sequence.\r\n\r\nIf the same reasoning would be applied we'd have run out of ports already due to http servers exhausting the port range, but what do you know, the vast majority of http servers still run on port 80 ;) (even where there are many of them on the same subnet)"}}
