Has anyone ever had these problems before? I was hoping that I could most likely change the port, because I'm trying to connect with my sister at school and neither video nor audio chat work (although they worked before). I'm thinking that there's a firewall that's preventing us from communication.

Anyone have a solution?

Sorry, no. Same problems here.

I REALLY hope Apple solves all these connection snafu's before final release. People just expect that if they can iChat with someone then they should also be able to video chat. At least that's the message I got when SJ showcased this new toy.

I've had the same problems from work, behind a firewall ("John Doe declined your invitation"), although videoconferencing works PERFECTLY from my home DSL connection.

I've opened all the firewall ports indicated in Apple's several tech notes on the subject, but to no avail.

Any pointers on this would be appreciated!
