If you need to get at your machines from outside, use SSH. It's secure which
is good for remote access anyway, plus you can do secure file transfer with it
(scp)... and your cable company is not too likely to have any idea what it is
so they won't block it ;)
One thing I've used in the past is a terminal emulator that does automatic
ZMODEM uploading/downloading to telnet into a machine, then I use rz or sz
on the command line to transfer the file.
