I've had this problem since September and no one I've contacted has helped me, only offered the same solution...just different steps.
When I'm connected on a hardline ethernet cord to my Westell Modem (Verizon DSL ISP)my connection to: Browser, AIM, Online games, etc. are perfect. When I'm behind my Linksys BEFSR41 v3 router (and the one I had before it, but it's trashed) I couldn't connect to AIM for anything longer than maybe 15 seconds. After that 15 second mark, I'd either get the "AOL AIM RECONNECT DIALOGUE: RECONNECTING IN [] MINUTES..." or I would send a message (or check an away message, profile, etc) to a friend...and they wouldn't get it until a few minutes later. Same would happen to me...I'd end up getting like 15 instant messages from the same person in a second flat. QUITE tedious.
So: DSL works...Router doesn't.
suggestions?
thank-you!
JJ
