Have just gone wireless using WGR614 Router yet am unable to access MSN email and groups presumably held out by firewall. All other functions appear normal although had to uninstall then reinstall anti virus software to prevent periodic system crashes. Netgear helpline anything but helpful and clearly do not recognise a problem. Would much appreciate some advice.

err..

either you got the wrong site, or wrong forum.

Still, ill move this to right place and maybe someone has an answer for you!

Good luck

If you enable the Netgear router's logging, then try MSN mail, it will probably log which port it is trying to use. Once you have that, you can custom configure a setting under "Port Forwarding" to open that port up for the router. Netgear has some predefined settings in the dropdown, but I don't recall anything specific for MSN except for messenging.

Tim,

Many thanks for the suggestion which I have attempted. Regrettably MSN does not come up with any Port numbers so I remain stymied.
