OK I got NTL 2mb broadband about a week ago. I've set it up on wireless so I can get it in my bedroom. I'm using a Sitecom Wireless Broadband Router 54g (WL-160). So far I haven't been able to use msn messenger, google talk, uTorrent or Limewire. I reckon its got something to do with ports. Unfortunately I don't know how to fix this. I don't have a firewall on now so I don't know whats the problem. Is ntl blocking them? I used to have broadband in my last apartment and all those programs worked perfectly.
Can anybody help me in as simple an explination as possible? Thanks.
