Has anyone had a problem connecting to the AIM service using a Linksys BEFSR41 v.2 router?? My sister bought the router, opened up the appropriate ports, but no connection. If she can't figure it out, she's gonna give me the router and take my switch (I call that a fair trade, considering it's her switch in the first place:D) Any help would be greatly appreciated.
