So, In the short term how do I work out if my current setup has more
holes than a tea strainer?

Can't find anything helpful in the Router setup screens, the only
thing I can appear to play with is NAT.

Another pending question I have to resolve is how do I enable certain
ports to be opened, so I can get messenger, netmeeting etc to work.
Can get a camera link going and text chat but no audio or file
transfer and then close them again.

Regards

Paul
