Default Outlook cannot conect to Exchange Server using Comcast

Are you just trying to connect directly to your Exchange server over the
Internet? If so, it's probably your company's firewall that's causing your
problem as much as anything. Your choices of getting Outlook to work are to
either use a VPN and run Outlook through that, or use RPC over HTTP. Check
with your IT department for details.

Hi Everyone,

I am currently using Outlook 2007 and cannot conect to my companies
Microsoft Exchange Server. I use Comcast as my internet service
provider. I am able to use our webclient through IE to do my daily
emails, but its really a pain not to be able to use Outlook. So I am
looking for a fix.

When I travel, I am able to connect from hotels (I am guessing since
they don't have any ports blocked) so I know my account is set up
correctly.

I read about comcast "blocking" ports that MES uses to communicate,
but am not able to find a fix for this. So my questions a

Is there a way around this?
What other options do I have? (ex. getting an at&t wireless internet
card to use from home)
Any other suggestions/tips/info?
