The "silly question" came from my last visit to Hong Kong and Beijing (same trip). In HK, everything worked, but the Beijing leg was a jolt--both of my business domains, my Blogger account, and Gmail account were blocked, at a Starwood property no less. Was able to log into each one the night I checked in, but the next morning, no go. Same for the VPN. The only things that worked without problems were Skype (whew) and, oddly, my older Comcast email account.

Granted, it's been a couple of years, but being prepared ahead of time is never a bad idea.

Thanks to everyone who chimed in with helpful info!
