I have two XP based PCs on separate networks sitting
behind their own Linksys routers with UPnP enabled. They
have a very difficult time sharing video, app sharing,
etc. with each other -- if at all. How can I chase down
exactly what ports are/are not being opened and what i
spreventing the connection from taking place? I have had
each computer work independently with other computers
using the same functionality.

Thanks!
 
What Linksy router have you got ?
You have UPnP enabled in the router ?
Have you installed the optional XP Network componet UPnP installed on
both PCs ?
What firewall are you running on both PCs?
Have you got the XP service UPnP enabled (auto) on both PCs?
Have you got the XP service SSD enabled (auto) on both PCs?

Basically give us more info other than it doesnt work..
 
Do each of the routers have their own connection to the Internet? If not how
are the connected to the Internet. Do you have any trouble with just
keyboard chat between the 2 PCs?
