Windows messenger disconnects

[T C Tulloch]

I'm using Windows Messenger 5.0 on my Xp Pro machine
which is wired through to a Netgear WGR614v4 router.
Since installation of this router, I experince random
disconnets of Windows messenger. And I won't know i
disconnect until i try to contact someone.

I have UPnP enabled on the router and the services
installed on XP.

I have yet been able to figure this out.

My router came shipped with this firmware installed. I
can not figure out what is causing this problem.
