OK, I'll disable port forwarding and DMZ. And, as far as configuring the audio receiver manager software is concerned, there isn't much to configure. Check or uncheck the one box in the IP Config dialog. What other 'receiver manager' setting do I have to adjust? And, if I disable my firewall and still can't get a connection, do I also have to disable my PC-Cillin virus- scan software, could that be where the blockage is stemming from?
