Greg,
I try "testing" and have this question/observation:

- I tried downloading from a 192.168.1.* location (marked in red letters) but that had 3 stars
- after an initial "Waiting for reply" message, the download started but it now said the location was "***.***.***.*"

So, does this mean the other person was behind a NAT and was not using "Force IP" to advertise their external IP, but that the download proceeded as a Push (from them to me)?

Also, you said that one-star indicated that both of us are behind firewalls, but since I have my external IP advertised this shouldn't apply! Is this a future enhancement, or is there more to the one-star rating?

Thanks again for your help,
Tony
