This is most likely a router/port issue, but does anyone else get d/c'd when someone on their home wireless network signs onto MSN Messenger? It's pissing me right the f*** off getting d/c'd right in the middle of a firefight just because of MSN Messenger taking up all of the connection space.

Does anyone know how to remedy this? What ports to open to allow MSN Messenger and Halo2 to live in harmony?

For spec sakes, I'm running a D-Link 624, and I've got a CAT 5 cable running directly to the router from my XBox, the other computers running wirelessly using D-Link 5xx bridges.

Any help would be great. Sorry if this is the wrong forum to post it, but I didn't where else it fit!

Thanks so much!
