Make sure that all the firewalls between you and your chat partner are open for the ports ichat uses and that all routers forward these ports.
Helpful google keywords: ichat port(s) forwarding firewall router NAT

Sounds like a port-forwarding issue on your router or a firewall issue on your Mac. Be sure you've set up the ports correctly.
