Hi

I've got a WRT54G on which I would like to block msn on a specific PC, but it doesn't seems to work. Someone who can guide me?

Hi, but just one problem:
The msnmessenger filter works well, but unfortunately msn-filetransfer doesn't work. (tested with widows live messenger 8.1)

It doesn't seems to work. I have read something about messenger is using different ports. I have blocked port 1863. Is that correct??

from what i've noticed is that msn will pick a random port if you block its default ports it used for filetransfure.
The speed will be very slow compared to when the ports are open but it will still work.
