Strange Voice Problem

[Steven]

I use the latest version of messenger, and have a microsoft broadband
router, here is the problem..(oh, and xp pro)

I can hear voice, I can use my mic and the person I am communicating with
can hear me, but I cannot hear anything from them. And this is the case
with several people who are able to have 2 way conversation with anyone else
but me!

Somehow, it stopped receiving voice, but can send just fine. Any
suggestions?

Greetings Steven,

You probably just need to remove the current port forwardings. To do so, click Start, All
Programs, Accessories, Communications, Network Connections. Right-click the "Internet
Gateway" (should be under the Internet Gateway heading) and choose Properties. Choose the
Settings button, click each 'msmsgs' or 'msnmsgr' entry and then choose 'Delete' to each one.
Then close Messenger (right-click the Messenger icon, choose Exit), then restart Messenger.

As well, both of you should run through the Audio/Video Tuning Wizard (click the Tools menu
in the main Messenger window, then Audio Tuning Wizard) just to make sure nothing's changed
there, then try again.
