Can't start voice conversation with SMC 7004VBR router
I have a ADSL connection and works fine. I can use my Window messenger 4.7
to do instant message, voice and video conversation. I recently bought the SMC 7004VBR Route and successfully set up with the CD came with the router, the connection can be established and everything looks normal. However, I can send and receive instant messege by Windows Messenge but cannot start the voice conversation with other Win Messeger users. But I can start talking between 2 computers connected directly to the same router. I am using Win XP Pro SP1. Please help |

Can't start voice conversation with SMC 7004VBR router
Greetings,
In order to use the voice/video features of Messenger that you described below the NAT (router in this case) needs to support either some type of built-in Application Layer Gateway (ALG) for Messenger or have Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) support. The 7004VBR does have UPnP support, but you'll probably have to upgrade to the latest version of the firmware from the SMC website: http://www.smc.com/drivers_downloads...VBR_FWv123.zip (there's a text file with detailed instructions in the zip). Also note that after you upgrade the routers firmware, you'll need to reboot in order for UPnP to take effect in all applications (Messenger). ____________________________________________ Jonathan Kay Windows MVP, Messenger Associate Expert http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/expertzone/ Messenger Resources - http://messenger.jonathankay.com "ms" wrote in message ...

Hi,
It's possible that the problem is on your contacts' side, do you happen to know if they're able to have a voice conversation with others? ____________________________________________ Jonathan Kay Windows MVP, Messenger Associate Expert http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/expertzone/ Messenger Resources - http://messenger.jonathankay.com "ms" wrote in message ...
