do u have a firewall on the router, is it blocking the msn messenger port (not sure what it is), or is there some proxy you have to configure

type in the address of your router into the browser, (look in the instruction manual to find out), there will probably be a username and password you must enter, then use that to disable the firewall, if msn works, you can then get round to allowing the msn port access (which i tihnk is 4896)
