I'd offer to make you a cup of tea if I wa there -- nothing beetter for soothing the nerves! Will you accept a virtual cup, and a slice of sponge cake? I can’t offer advice, not being a tech-head.

Best ones have a feature called "stateful packet inspection." This will insure that rogues won't be able to get near your ethernet connection into your computer. Software firewalls look at the packets while inside your computer, and I'm just waiting for someone to crack that.

For the record, my webspace is in New York, my email comes to Missouri via California (spam filtering) and Michigan (ISP). We did look at hosting in India too... Hang in there, it will come right. I've done tech support, and they can do the job right. If you can, write down the error messages you see, that'll be a big help to them. Praying for you.

May all of the computer gremlins you're dealing with suddenly decide to move to the nether regions of cyberspace! (Let them know that they'll get cake and ice cream there. Maybe that'll help!) Seriously... I'm sorry that your frustration level is through the roof. Transition times never seem to go well for the customer. Blessings and peace - Richard Ack, Bene!
