They seem to have a defective firewall that violates the TCP standard by messing up the window scale factor. If you still want to reach Libre, see if you can turn TCP window scaling off. (I have no idea how to do it in MacOS X.) That may work around the problem, but it limits your ability to utilize a high bandwidth. It's most likely that wirefall – sorry, firewall – that's blocking ping too. That's just the kind of pointless thing that broken firewalls like doing. -- Björn Persson PGP key A88682FD omb jor ers @sv ge. r o.b n.p son eri nu
