AIM connection timed out
For the past few days I haven't been able to login to either AIM or iChat. I usually only use AIM. I have been useing AIM on this computer for over a year and this is the first time I've ever had this type of problem. I am wirelessly connected to a cable modem via a wireless router (the connection is shared with a desktop PC).
When I try to sign onto AIM (version 4.7 for mac) it usually stalls at the login process screen saying "looking for service" or "connecting." Next I get an error message ("Your Attention Please" box) that says "The connection could not be completed because it timed out."
I have tried changing the way I connect to the internet, but that didn't work. I then tried to change the port (several times) but that would not work either. I have also tried to uninstall and reinstall AIM, but that also failed.
Like I mentioned before, I have been using this software for over a year. No settings have been changed on my computer, the connections, the router, or the cable modem until after I started to have problems loging on.
Please help!
