A "Cell Site", for the uninformed, is a "Cellular Phone site". What

referred to as an "Access Point", or in ham-radio speak, a "Node".
A genuine misunderstanding arising from the incorrect placement of a
technical term, however I do regret that offence was taken(sic). Reminder
to use the correct terminology, and to filter for misunderstandings before
unleashing the offence.
I don't see how this has any relation to politics.
Bart wants to
identify ISPs that may not work well with 44net due to blocking
tunneling protocols. GRE is just an example, but an ISP could easily
block IPIP, too.
It would be really helpful to have some software that would tell you
"You're ISP is blocking it" instead of just emailing the 44net list
with "Why don't my tunnels route traffic?"
Point taken and conceded.
Best way to ask ISPs what they filter, is to simply ASK them. Why would
you connect with some ISP and then spend months trying to debug something,
when you could simply ASK them beforehand? Perhaps you like your head down
such rabbitholes? I do not - I want to plug it in and it works.
