Messenger Thinks My Ip is Invalid
- by Umut Benzer
Hello. I am using Windows Live Messenger 2009 on Windows 7. I am using a 3G modem (ZTE Propietary USB Modem)
I connect to the Internet using a software my ISP provided me. In last three days, my Messenger started to disconnect.
Here is what I observed and tried to do:
1- I can browse web, can do FTP transfer etc. and obiviously have a valid IP.
2- I can sign in to Messenger (appear offline) but when I change my status to anything other then appear offline, Messenger says my connection to service has been lost. (However, it exists.)
3- When I run, MSN Connection Troubleshooter, it says my IP is invalid. When I click repair, it says repaired and just after that, I run the troubleshooter again, and it says my IP is invalid again. (However, it is valid and I am browsing the net.)
4- If I connect the Internet through eterhet or wireless there is no problem at all.
5- I re-installed Messenger (deleting all settings manually through registry and folders), re-installed all drivers and software related to USB 3G Modem. It doesn't work. And then, I took a full backup then formatted entire computer, installed a fresh windows 7, after 5 minutes, the same problem occured.
What do you recommend? What can I do?
Addition
As seen on screenshot, it says Server IPv4 adress is 0.0.0.0
It seems like a problem, I don't know if it is. If it is, how can I solve it?
Here is what I get, when I netstat.
