RE: 80072745 Error and Netgear Router
Hi,
I too have the same issue and only get error code 80072745.. everything else works/connects fine. I have a Netgear DG834N router and have tried many of the above suggestions. The only thing I have had work and allow messenger to connect is to restart the router or reconnect the ADSL connection (restarting obviously makes this happen) allowing a new IP to be issued as this is not static. Once this is done messenger connects fine for a unspecified period of time (days/weeks) before the same issue happens again.
It does appear to be as burntoutmouse has suggested that the IP is being banned and therefore the connection is blocked. This isn't too much of an issue for me as i can just reconnect and get a new IP, however anyone with a static will have problems.
It would be nice to find out the ban time for an IP.
