What are the webcam requirements for Yahoo! Messenger?

Why does Yahoo Messenger & Webcam shutdown my modem?

  • My system is Windows 7 Home. I have updated Yahoo Messenger & Logitech webcam. Was working fine until last month. On webcam chat, my guest's video feed runs good for about 1 min & then freezes. Then my modem looks like it resets as if it lost a signal. Then my Messenger has to be rebooted. I tried reinstalling webcam driver & new updates for video drive etc. Any fix it solutions? I never knew that Yahoo Messenger+webcam trouble will shut down the modem. First I've heard of it. By the way, my own video feed seems uninterrupted..it's only screwing up my receiving feed.

  • Answer:

    You do know that the Web Cam software isn't involved if your video is fine. Problem is Yahoo Messenger and I have no ideas on that. You need to verify your modem settings and that this is your only problem with your modem. I suspect that the problem is with Yahoo Messenger.
