Thanks for the info so far. I was aware about the fios port blocking but there are lots of things you can do to live with it - if you know how.
The "Requires Secure Connection" checkbox on your mobile specifies the client to use port 443/SSL. This is also one of the reasons non-standard ports really don't work well with ActiveSync. Take for example Nokia's Mail For Exchange client. It allows you to enter a non-standard port, but exchange on the back end gets screwed up connecting.
Yeah, I hear ya, I am probably going to go the ssl route. I did find a msft link about creating a virtual server in exchange and then re-direct kb817379
