Default Wireless internet = no poker?

Does anyone know if university-supplied wireless internet is capable of blocking online poker servers?

I am able to log in to the site, and even view who's actively playing on the tables, but when I join a game I'm consistently getting error messages saying that I have an internet connection, but am unable to access the server.

wtf?

On campus?

Actually, what's weird is that I was able to play on Monday but every day since then I haven't been able to connect.

Now I'm paranoid that they discovered me playing and somehow are blocking out the site [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

too much pot??
