Hi all,

In my office the Live MSN Messenger disconnects often and gets signing in automatically, but for browsing no problem.

What is the reason?

Thanks.

Browsing won't show when there's a disconnect where an IM program will.

Talk to your System Administrator and see if there's anything they can check/track.

It's entirely possible that, from where you're located, the internet between you and the MSN Live Server has a bottleneck in it. Communications will be intermittent.

Hi all,

When i found live messenger disconnection problem in our office, i tried to search in lots of forums, i cud see a plenty of questions same like me.

Finally after a big research i could find out the reason was the modem's firmware. The DSL modems upgrades the firmware automatically itself. The latest firmware were making this problem.

Then i tried to reinstall the previous version of firmware to the modem, now the problem fixed. No messenger disconnection anymore.

To disable the modems firmware automatic update you have to go to the modems firmware option and try to find the automatic firmware update and disable the UPNP also.
