AIM TALK "Port forwarding"

[neonerd]

Does any1 know witch ports i need to fw on my router to be able to talk on aim?

It should be port 5190, but you can change that so you use 443, 80, 23 or anyone of those. You can, at least in Windows have AIM to autodetect which port is open. You do that by getting into preferences and got to connection and click on autoconfigure.

Hope this helps

Thank you for your suggestion, but I think I wasn't clear enough in my question. I meant which port(s) do I need to forward in order to use the "Talk" feature of AIM (People --> Connect to Talk). Also, if anyone knows which port(s) I need forwarded in order to Direct Connect, your advice is greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance for any replies.
