broadcast internet.
we always run into issues with broadcast internet. Not sure if its because they're operator side nat/routing or what.

I'm sure they did say that. What I'm saying is we see issues with things like this along using broadcast internet. Not sure if its because they use their own routing/nat/filtering or what. I haven't found a good answer for it yet.

Which ISP is at the other end of this box?
You could try a search here for it.
As plemans says, "broadcast internet" isn't common. So there isn't much collective wisdom here on the subject.
