RE: Msn Not working with 2 Routers.. ideas?
It doesn't "work fine".  It may seem so where protocols involving outbound connections only are concerned, but such a setup completely breaks UPnP and makes manual port forwarding very difficult (as it would need to be done on both routers).  It will keep biting you in subtle ways -- things mostly working, but with exceptions (prime examples being voice and file transfer in IM programs, many games).

As I stated before, if Messenger still operates the same it did last time I looked, I don't think your setup should be stopping Messenger from connecting.  Nevertheless, you are strongly advised to get rid of it -- it is fundamentally broken.
