Unhappy MSN Messenger not working since router flash upgrade
Hey all,

I upgraded my router firmware via flash to DD-WRT and although everything else works ABSOLUTELY FINE, MSN Messenger just wont connect for me, it keeps trying to sign in and then comes up with an error. I've tried running the connection troubleshoot test and everything comes up in green....so no problems there.

Please can someone try and help?

I have a Linksys WRT54G v5 router with that DD-WRT flash upgrade applied on it.

Thanks
