AIM and Linksys Router Problems

[Viper0329]

Ever since I added a Linksys 4 port router/switch, I can't do the image connect or direct connect with some people in AIM.

I have just upgraded to latest firmware, am runnin latest version of AIM, and have tried using a DMZ with my address.

It works if I plug directly into the modem, but it wont work if I do it with the router.

I was getting a similar problem, only with Windows netmeeting as well...although I can't remember how I fixed it exactly, I think I forwarded the ports 1720-1721 to my ip address on my LAN...let me know if that works.

With IM (And I think ICQ too) you have to forward ports 5190. Took me a while to figure that one out...but works great now.
