Someone else is reporting over on the Firenet list that they can't connect to firenet:10152.  Are you using the same port?  My igate is going in on another port, and I'm probably injecting objects on a different port too.

FWIW:  The port I'm having trouble with on fifth.aprs.net is also 10152.  Maybe that port is turned off by default in newer versions of the server software?
