No, I am connected thru a the ethernet connection. I can download from everyone else just cannot connect directly with friends because of that firewall problem.

I see other people have a lot of the same problems and I have tried all the network settings in control panal by adding Gnutella, port 127.0.0.1 and my specific port to both TCP and UDP.

Still no luck.

Is there any other reliable P2P program to use to share my files with my family who live have way across the country? I'm tired of foloing around with Limewire who don't seem to offer a soloution to this problem, yet still want people to buy the Pro version...Why would anyone if they can't get the direct connection to work around the firewall issue?
