When I use messenger 7.5 behind a router, can I recieve the image of the
webcam of others without configure a nat protocol... (port forwarding
etc..)?
I have problems with some users ....
Thank you.
 
Greetings,

Assuming both users are using MSN Messenger 7.5, a direct connection won't be required as a
relay server is in place. However, if the relay was blocked by a firewall or similar, then
you might experience difficulty.

As long as the router supports Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) a direct connection should be
automatic however.
