Q: Firewall ports & face time
I worked with my provider to open the firewall ports in the article referred to me by tech support. I still can't connect face time or iMessage even though everything else connects. Now what?
Ipad, iOS 4

Hi guys,
I read some of the other posts on iAd/face time issues, and one person recommended that you replace your DNS address with googles 8.8.8.8
I ran this by Apple senior tech Kirk, who said this woukd work, however you. May have issues with certain sites/apps. He said that if you did that, activated face time and/or iMessage then returned to settings/wifi/DNS and erased it, yor IP would replace it with the correct one.
I did just that, as well as returning my firewalls to their default settings...
It works get!!
How cool is that!? Kudos to ALL the community of support!
