You have obviously set something up wrong or they are deliberately blocking those ports.

So.... let's recap...

You are asking us to help you bypass your school's security of their wireless internet so you can use it for purposes they have not approved.

Please don't solicit help on Macrumors to controvert data security systems for the purpose of gaining illicit access.
