Re: The Rant Thread (v 1.2)
No, the credit card terminal does not have an open port on the modem to receive at. That would be idiotic and you should feel like an idiot for suggesting it. No, closing a listening port will not have any major impact on the credit card machine's ability to call outside the **** network. That would also be idiotic and you should feel like an idiot for suggesting it. No, someone who doesn't understand that outward facing ports are irrelevant to calling outside the network should not be involved in answering tech support calls about modems. That is idiotic and your employers should feel like idiots for letting it happen.
Also, I despise bad tech support.
