Same old question, SMC 7004 and MSN Messenger in XP

[Linglan]

Basiclly it doesn't work.

Put the computer that's going to do voice and video communication on DMz(somelike) but still no video or audio. Another thing is that when I check my connection in messenger, it writes that I am not behind firewall and it is direct connect. So anything I can do about it?

already flash the fireware to lastest one.

any website that give very detail step by step setup to make it work?

Thanks.

I remember seeing something on Microsoft's Corporate Download page that had a download for Messenger. It had to deal with audio and video issues. You might want to check that out. Hope this helps.

P.S. You have to click that link using Internet Explorer and Windows XP, otherwise, it won't work

From what I have read or heard Messenger Voice and Audio really won't work well, if at all, until the routers update their firmware to support the UPnP standard. This is supposedly going to fix (transparently) any NAT routing issues. Windows XP and Windows ME already have support for UPnP. Now the router vendors need to update their firmware.
