FTP OK but no WU or Tweet

Hi Chaps
Just successfully installed a WH3080 in a small primary school in Devon and they fixed a broken Internet connection today - got Cumulus ftp'ing OK up to a new site (see instow.vivatek.co.uk) - I set up a WU and a Twitter account too but these don't seem to be uploading - I reckon it must be the school's router? They are very picky about allowing access to sites . . is there a different port for WU/Twitter or is it just a case for the wireless router being configured to allow access?
Cheers
Steve

WU and Twitter use http (and in addition, Twitter uses SSL) so they would probably need to go via a proxy, and there's no way to do that with Cumulus. The ports are 80 and 443, you could try enabling those.
