Yes. You guys should really give more information. What OS, do you have a router or firewall etc.
The most common problem seems to be that routers/firewalls block the port that gnutella uses.
If you know how to set up your router/firewall, set it to forward port 6346 to your local IP.
I hope this makes sense.
