You most likely have to use a http or socks proxy to reach the outside
world.
Tell your web service stack to use that.

Subject: [WEB400] Bypassing outgoing firewall restrictions
Some anal network administrators refuse to allow the i5 to connect to simple
webservices like geocode, or those that might offer weather or exchange rate
info etc.
They seem to fear that an RPG program can somehow allow a virus or hacker
in.
Anyone know any easy way round this?
