WTF? How come AIM talk works, and sometimes doesn't?

Some of my friends like to use the AIM talk feature, but then its weird. I am behidn a router and firewall, so of course I have problems with other people like that, but then they're on 56k modems. I can connect flawlessly with my other friends, but then it would only work sometimes with my friend that likes using the AIM Talk feature.

Can anyone think of a reason why this is so? At first, it didn't work so I thought it was a closed port on my side, but then it would sometimes work. Whats up with this?

the aim talk feature i found to be so so. the one built in msn is much better.

I use it all the time talking with ja_oh in thailand. :)
