cPanel, WHM and even Webmail uses non-common ports which some Internet Server Providers (ISP) do not allow and makes it impossible for people to access any of these. cPanel works on 2082\/2083, WHM 2086\/2087 and Webmail 2095\/2096.<\/p>\n
The workaround is to install cPanel Proxy which works as a proxy gateway for Apache and the requests to cPanel\/WHM\/Webmail are then served through port 80 instead of their respective ports which are blocked by the ISP.<\/p>\n
