Windows 7 Easy Connect MI424WR Problem

Hello,

I am having problems with Windows 7 Remote Assistance Easy Connect.  When I try to connect on my desktop or laptop PC, it tells me that it can't connect to the Global Peer-to-Peer Network.  I have read previous message boards, and it seems like the problem is tied to the PNRP.  I have Verizon FIOS, and I have an Actiontec MI424WR Revision I router.

I have isolated the problem to the router and not the connecting devices because I have taken the laptop to my friend's house, and I can start Easy Connect with no problem.  (He has a different ISP and router model.)  I have tried completely turning off my router's firewall, as well as trying to enable IPv6, and it does not seem to make a difference.

To make matters worse, I am virtually certain I was able to use Easy Connect as recently as five months ago.  I am not sure if Verizon made a change with a firmware upgrade or a security change on their servers, but this is incredibly frustrating.  Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,

Dan
