Stop receiving messages by Chris4 on 09-07-2008 at 09:15 PM

I randomly stop receiving messages. No warning or error given. Contacts are shown the "message cannot be sent" eventually. Was hoping it would just pass but it's been doing it for weeks now. I have to exit WLM and run it again to fix it.

Any ideas?

Windows XP Service Pack 3 (5.1.2600)
Windows Live Messenger 8.5.1018
Messenger Plus! Live 4.70.0.334

Windows Firewall
avast! anti-virus
Wireless internet connection

How is the wireless internet connection for other things? I smell dropped packets...

You're right. It's been messing up.

So the internet connection must be the problem, I just don't know how to fix it.

I tried resetting the router to factory defaults then setting it up again but it didn't fix it. :(

It's a problem with the internet, not the account.

It happens to me sometimes even on a wired connection. One account I won't be able to talk to anyone because of undeliverable messages yet my other accounts are fine. It's aggravating when it happens and I haven't found any "cure" for it either.
