Voice/Video features of Messenger not working - PLEASE HELP

I am running Windows XP Service Pack 2, Windows Messenger 5.1 (not MSN Messenger) and I have a WRT54G v5, f/w 1.01.  I cannot use the video, voice or file transfer features of Messenger when connected to the internet via the router.  Connected to the DSL modem without the router, I can use these Messenger features.  I tried twice today with Linksys live chat help, but did not get anywhere.
Can someone please help me with this?  If so, please be specific.
Thanks.
