i cant connect through aim since i got my router. ive done numerous searches mostly telling me to forward port 5190, but that doesnt work. then i found one saying to forward port 4443. that worked. but only for five minutes and never again. How the fuck can i get this to work!?!?

sounds like a scuzzi problem
I love him. He's like those happy old people who become known for sitting by the side of a busy street and waving to passing cars. People drive by regularly and beep just to see him and get him to wave to them.
That's just like our Arpi... except he doesn't wave or anything. He just says mean things to you. GonzoStyle Wrote:I pledge my undying love for Arpi, any retraction of this undying love is to be ignored. Nominated for," 2005 poster of the year", by 4 out of 6 mods!

your router should have an admin that allows you to open ports for various apps. open the port in the admin you have AIM set to use

It's SCSI, not Scuzzi.

can't you change the port for AIM?
go into AIM and click on the Sign On/Off. There should be a button on the lower right "connection". click on that and see if it can get to the AIM servers. maybe it will find another port on its own..
Thank you. This has been a public service annoucement brought to you by Ronin, your favorite neighborhood mercenary.

IF you have a linksys router this is a widely known problem. Its a problem with when aim sends the connect message to who you want to connect to it tells the other persons computer your ip is the one on your computer not the ones of lets just say your cable modem. So your computers ip is 192.168.1.100 but your cable modems ip which is the one that people need to connect to your is like 24.185.16.167 when that happens they look into almost like space to find you. ITs an error in AIM programing and the people at aol dont seem to be quick to fix it
