I have an smc router and I can't send on msn.. but if anyone knows how I can send on MSN I will send you a movie.... any movie u want. (if I hav it, btw I have 500 cds of movie.)

If your using DHCP with your router, turn it off.

Assign each computer on your network their own IP. (static ip)

Then set your ip as the DMZ host in the router config.

 

Next, to secure your box setup a firewall like iptables (for linux) or zonealarm (for windows).

 

That should do the trick.

 

 

OR

 

If you know what port #'s MSN uses, you could open them up thru the router config (if the router has the options).

Is it Windows Messenger, or MSN Messenger?

 

 

For MSN Messenger:

To enable voice communications, make sure that outgoing TCP connections from port 6901 are enabled. Also enable UDP packets where either the source or the destination port is 6901.

 

To enable file transfers, enable both incoming and outgoing TCP connections to the 6891-6900 range of TCP ports. This allows each sender to perform up to 10 simultaneous file transfers. Note that if only TCP port 6891 is open, users are only able to perform one file transfer at a time.

 

To enable messaging, enable outgoing TCP connections to TCP port 1863.
