If it happened directly after you installed your router, then it is most likely your router.

There is a good article regarding how to fix connection problems here.

Hope that helps! :D

Road Runner tries to block WinMX a lot...set the ports you're running WinMX through as

TCP: 120
UDP: 80

or it's the other way around...that should fix everything :D
