MSN Messenger Dropping Out

[Craig van Nieuwkerk]

Hi.

I have a frustrating problem (who doesn't).

I had one PC connected to the internet and another laptop that connected to
the internet via it using ICS. I could sign in not problems to MSN on both
computers. This was using a dial-up connection.

I have just installed ADSL using a SpeedTouch 530 router. Now on the laptop
that is connected via ICS it can sign into Messenger for about a minute
before it drops out. It still appears that it is connected on the laptop, ie
the green icon still appears, but to everyone else it is disconnected.

Any ideas?

Craig.
