I can access irc.geekshed.net (in it's many forms) with the same laptop from all three of my home networks, but when I switch to using verizon wireless for my mobile connection (which is where I spend the majority of my time online), I can connect to other irc servers (using xchat or web client, same results) such as freenode, and several others including my own, but I get nothing but time outs trying to connect to irc.geekshed.net (and the variants that leads to).
Suggestions?
Using xchat:

Same results using AndChat IRC directly on the phone (instead of using mobile hotspot mode).

Trying 122.248.218.2...Connection timed out
Just times out with no connection.
Enabling SSL still doesn't connect either.
Suggestions please?
Thanks!
