What do you mean by "blocked"?
1. The packets are lost somewhere in the cyberspace?
2. You receive an ICMP "host unreachable"
3. You receive a RST answer (connection refused)

If (2), a sniffer would give you the IP address of the bad gateway.
If (1), this might be a routing problem. Can you access other ports?
You can try a "nmap".

I've seen this kind of behaviour before. I could not SSH to a machine
from my home machine, but I could from work. A nmap showed that only a
couple of ports were "filtered".

Firewalk should be able to find which gateways rejects the
connection. http://www.packetfactory.net/Projects/Firewalk/
Hope this help.
