Facetime to China

Following the latest upgrad to iOS 5.1.1, whilst here in Japan,  I have not been unable to communicate with my wife's iPad in China. We have separate ids and Facetime was the only usable way of Communicating, SkyPe was incredibly slow & cut-out often.... now (as of the past week, Facetime has stopped working). The only, change that has been made was that I upgraded to iOS 5.1.1.... nothing else changed

* 1 ... Have Facetime been blocked in China - as SkyPe used to be before being "Chinatised" ?

* 2 ... is anyone able to communicate to iPads in China , and which version of iOS are you using ?

* 3 ... does iOS 5.1.1 stop communications to China ?

*4 .. if you're using an iPad wirelesss version how can you confirm Facetime still works . SkyPe has a Server test, but Facetime doesnt

*5 ... Are there any tools out there to test Facetime connectivity without facetime

*6 .. Does Facetime on the Windows PC exist ?

Any suggestions ?

PS. I'm slightly above basic user, so please assume I know sometime or can at least google something, when you reply... also assume I've tried most on google.....

A bit of a late follow-up to this one, but the solution is to capitulate to the Powers that be, and use the "WeChat" application. It works just fine, both inside and outside of China.

If you need something more covert, then that is simply out of the scope of this post, which was raised purely upon the reduction of AV quality between China based users and those outside of the Country.
