AIM and other chat clients failing on T-zones GPRS

0 replies · 2,117 views · Started 04 August 2005

after reading several threads on this forum, and attempting to use several chat clients using the 4.99 t-zones unlimited plan, i have found out what could be the solution to this problem.

the 4.99 t-zones plan has a limited number of ports open, and most of the apps out there utilize the "closed" ports, such as 5190 and 80. After speaking with a technician, he gave me a list of open TCP ports that are used on that plan:

TCP
25 -POP
110 -SMTP
143
465
993
995
9201 -Dedicated for AIM

Hopefully if there are any developers out there that could take this list into consideration. Also, any source code for any AIM client for Series 60 Nokia phones would be greatly appreciated.

I hope this can solve a lot of people's questions

EDIT: does anybody know of any chat client on symbian that lets you configure what ports it uses?
