Can't receive files

[Guest]

Hi Guys.
I have a two machine connected to a cable wireless router. My problem is that I can't receive files from my buddies on ICQ or MSN, though I can successfully send a file to them. I can't also connect to Morphus but everthing else works normally. I can surf and download.
Is there is some issue with specific port numbers blocked? If some has resolved this issue then please let me know.
Thanks.
Prakash.

It's probably due to a port being blocked by your router. Check your s/w documentation. If it requires a specific port for communication, it'll tell you which one. Then you'll have to specifically open that port with your router. Good luck!
