Help can't login gtalk from wi-fi

Hi,

I'm using gtalk on my laptop, connecting from home Wi-Fi router. login is OK. when trying to connect from gtalk client on my galaxy i cannot access gtalk (as well as download apps from market) :mad:
Did any one hear about this issue before? tried searching the net and saw there is a problem but could find any solution.
needless to say that i tried all options (open my wireless w/o security, opened NAT and virtual server to all ports etc.)

thanks,
 
Strange. Can you turn on a log on your router and check what its trying to connect to?

Also run and adb logcat to see what connection(s) is/are failing. Then you can manually test those tcp connections while messing with your router.

Its possible the mobile version of gtalk uses a different server and ports.
 
To test its actually open in a cmd window on your PC type:

telnet mtalk.google.com 5228

It should connect and the window go blank, and you should be able to type some characters which wont be echoed. Press CTRL + ] and type quit to exit

If you get connection refused, you're firewall isnt actually open!
 
Solve the issue
indeed was ports configuration (Virtual server & NAT)
now Gtalk works excellent and i can again download apps from Market using Wi-Fi!!!

many thanks!!
