video chat on the playbook
so i've had my playbook for about a month now and i love it, bridged with my curve 3g it works like a dreamand with os 2 looming on the horizon things are looking better. the one gripe i have is that the video chat is closed a bit like facetime on ios (RIP steve you will be missed). has any one actually made any use of the video chat and if so how have you found the experience
Make sure these ports are open if you are using a hotel wifi
Have yoou taking your Blackberry PlayBook to the office and not able to use the Video Chat app? If so, RIM has post a nice knowledge base article for port settings and port forwarding.
BlackBerry PlayBook Video Chat uses the following ports and porting forwarding must be enabled for the application to work on a traffic restricted network:
- 443 (TCP)
- 3478 (TCP)
- 3478 (UDP)
- 45535 to 65535 (UDP)
- NOTE: Depending on the Network Address Translation (NAT) configuration for the network, additional ports may be used for video traffic.
