First of all, I love being wireless with AirPort Extreme it's like "priceless" ( Wireless: Priceless).
Secondly, I, myself, am deaf and I call places by using the video relay service (VRS) software provided by SPRINT company. It's like me communicating with sign languages to an operator via isight and the operator relays/interprets my messges to whoever I'm calling.

Lastly, it wont work on AirPort which It was working few days ago. But, not anymore. I've tried testing by direct connection from Cable modem, it works.. When I changed it to wireless and the VRS wont work on AirPort. I've tried everything.. I've tried reset the airport and nothing works... Any hints??

Thanks

You may need to map/open some port in your Airport Admin Utility (In the port mapping tab). From what i can tell VRS is run in a web browser and is some java applet. It is possible it is trying to use some port that is blocked by your Airport. You just need to find out what port it is using and map it.

Just a guess.
Good luck.
