So I was previously having trouble with my aim and mail, and could not change the settings on my airport extreme for some reason. Well i figured out the problems with mail and ichat, the ports they used are blocked. I have no idea how to figure out why they are blocked or how to unblock them without access to my aiport. Anyone have any suggestions?
Got a tip for us?

If it returns anything other than what I've written below, you have ports being blocked.
