Need help with WinRoute Pro configuration with MSN Messenger, Email setup, Port mapping ??? Quick Specs: - Self is now confused by the computers and trying the best to describe issue. Systems (A):-2 Ethernet Cards / Win98SE (B):-1 Ethernet Card / Win98SE (C):-1 Ethernet Card / Win98 Laptop (D):-1 PCMCIA Ethernet Card / Win95 Laptop (E):- Unknown -soon buying- The network is configured with the software "WinRoute Pro" for all access to the internet. Unfortunately. all this was installed and quickly configured by a friend. Whom has been relocated due to career and now, out of contact. I'm really having a hard time with this. This is the "can" list: - Can browse the Internet on all networked systems. - Can download through the Internet on all networked systems. - Can share files/printers throughout networked systems. - Can connect onto "KaZaa Media Desktop" -systems (A) only, cannot on systems (B,C,& D) - Can connect and "chat" with "MSN Messenger" on all the systems - Can only transfer files with "MSN Messenger" - only when "WinRoute Pro" is shut down - Can retreive all emails (from 3 different accounts (hotmail,school & isp) on system (A) only This is the "cannot" list - Cannot send/transfer files through "MSN Messenger" - All systems (A,B,C & D) to outside contacts - Cannot receive files from "MSN Messenger" - All systems (A,B,C & D) from outside contacts - Cannot "connect" onto "KaZaa Media Desktop" -All systems (B,C & D), except system (A) - Cannot retreive all emails (from 3 different accounts hotmail,school & isp) on system (B,C & D) Slightly puzzled: When sys(A) is connected to "MSN Messenger" on one account and someone else connects to "MSN Messenger" with their account on either/all sys(B,C & D). Can transfer files in between (through MSN Messenger) without problems. But cannot transfer if out of the networked ring??? I have looked for any help on the internet, to the point that I'm getting so confused. I have researched the "MSN Messenger" help files and faq's. I have downloaded the WinRoute Manual and read it (so confusing). I have researched "KaZaa" help files and faq's. *slight tear of desperation I've also sent emails to the appropriate parties mentioned and still waiting for "the/any" answers I would like to find anyone that has successfully installed/configured "WinRoute Pro" within their networked system and running all similiar applications properly. Pretty close to my setup in other words, would be very helpfull. Also, I used to run "ZoneAlarm Pro" without a problem until this was setup. First, I would like to concentrate on the above before opening a new Pandora's Box. Reason for "ZoneAlarm" is because I still have 3 months left. (also have sent them an email with dilema) Any help would be greatly appreciated by me and if it's solved (I will definetly cry/scream of joy for a year or two) :-)
