Hi,

Been having problems the last few days with users on my LAN not being able
to login to MSN messenger. I have been fiddling around on my firewall but
unsure what I affected to make this change.
How can I route all mu MSN traffic through a specific wan port ? I have 5
various types and would like to direct it through one of them.

It appears to use TCP port 1863.

You just need to setup a rule on your LAN interface allowing TCP 1863 specifying the gateway of the WAN you wish to use for it. Make sure you put that rule above any other rules that would match that traffic or the rule won't work (first match wins).

Advanced Outbound NAT is not required and should not be used unless you have another reason for using it. Outbound NAT rules are automatically generated for all WANs (unless you use AON), and only firewall rules can direct traffic out a specific WAN.
