MS Messenger - NAT

[Pete Carr]

I have DSL Modem and a LinkSys router
so I can share the DSL connection and also have our
two computers networked together. I can't send
things like pics (.JPG etc.) anymore from within Messenger
like I use to because of my new hardware setup I suppose.
I think it has something to do with NAT maybe. Could be
something else. Anyone know how to fix this. I am using
Messenger 8.
Thanks
Pete Carr

You may have posted to the wrong newsgroup. This one covers windows
messenger or msn messenger. If you are using messenger 8 then it must be a
different program with slightly the same name. MSN or Windows messenger are
not up to this version yet.

Otherwise check your port redirection settings on your router.
