Hello,

I bought a Logitech Quickcam Orbit several months ago and
have been unable to successfully transmit a voice and
video messages to a family members' computer. Both
computers are running Windows XP with SP2, and Windows
Messenger versions 4.7.3000. Firewalls on both computers
have been configured to allow WM & UPnP. In addition, my
computer runs through a Linsky's BEFSR41 Ver. 2 router
that has UPnP enabled.

When a voice & video conversation is initiated from my
computer, it trys to connect, and then gives a
message; "There is a problem with the network you are
trying to reach, please try again later".

What am I missing?

Thanks,
Josh
