Q:

weird thomson router problem - hangs when IM application is launched

I recently got a thomson router from my ISP. Whenever google talk is launched the connection to the internet is lost and the router has to be restarted. 
I tried google and found 1 more report with the same problem, but no solution. 
UPnP is enabled but i cannot figure out what is the problem.
Any help/ideas?
