I suggest basic network tools first.  Can you traceroute from new jersey
to utah?  

Check firewall logs, per the docs of your firewall.

Packet sniff.  Get a copy of ethereal running on a win or linux box, and
watch the packets fly in.

Can you lpr from your home box?  On linux you can lpr a file to the i5
via "lpr -p destination foo.txt".
