    Router firewall is off

    The problems you're having have nothing to do with Synchronet. Whether its your ISP or your own network setup, it's not Synchronet specific. So perhaps asking of a more general audience (not *just* Synchronet sysops): How can I host a TCP/IP server on my Windows system? Might provide you with more pointers and clues.

    Have you called your ISP to ask for assistance?

    Have you called the manufacturer of your network gateway/router for assistance? --

    I was able to telnet in and create an account without any problem.
