I do not have a physical router as far as I am aware. I have a ALCATEL Speed Touch USB device for connection to the Intermet for BT Broadband. I do have a home network set up, this computer being the main one. Would this cause any issues? Regards Denis -----Original Message----- Hi Denis, Are you using a router? ____________________________________________ Jonathan Kay Windows MVP, Messenger Associate Expert http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/expertzone/ Messenger Resources - http://messenger.jonathankay.com "Denis" wrote in message ... Jonathan Thanks for the info. One problem is i cannot find the Network Connections under the Communications heading from the Accessories listing all i have is Fax under this heading so cannot action the deletes under the settings buttons you have advised to do. I have removed the firewall from my internet connection as suggested. Can you help on this? thanks Denis. -----Original Message----- Greetings Denis, Are you using any type of router or firewall? If you're using a router, and assuming it supports UPnP, you might want to clear the port forwardings for Messenger. To do so, click Start, All Programs, Accessories, Communications, Network Connections. Right-click your "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 and try a voice/video conversation again. If you're using the built-in Windows XP Internet Connection Firewall, you might try turning it off. To do so, click Start, then click the Control Panel. If you're in category view click Network and Internet connections then click Network Connections. Right click the network connection, then click Properties. Click the Advanced Tab, and verify that the Internet Connection Firewall is unchecked. ____________________________________________ Jonathan Kay Windows MVP, Messenger Associate Expert http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/expertzone/ Messenger Resources - http://messenger.jonathankay.com "Denis" wrote in message ...

Hi Denis,
It might -- if you're using multiple network adapters, it may just be that your network adapters are in the wrong order. To see and to fix, click Start, All Programs, Accessories, Communications, and Network Connections. Choose the Advanced menu, then Advanced Settings, and use the arrow's in the first window to change the order to: Connections: Your Internet/Network Connection to the DSL modem Your Internal Connection 1394 Connection (if applicable) [Remote Access connections] After you've finished, click OK, and then reboot. ____________________________________________ Jonathan Kay Windows MVP, Messenger Associate Expert http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/expertzone/ Messenger Resources - http://messenger.jonathankay.com "Denis" wrote in message ...
