1) Does it need an incomming connection to make a download?! (I'm seeing atempts to connect my machine on port 19202 [the default listening port], even after I checked "Host is behind a firewall" - which is blocked by the firewall). |
You dont need incomming connections to make a download. The Host is behind firewall switch only recommends other clients to not connect to you, let Phex only return search results to clients not behind a firewall and indicate to use a Push transfer to download.
But some clients either dont listen or still try....

2) What is the meaning of checkbox "Connected to Local Area Network"? |
If you check "Connected to Local Area Network" Phex will try to also connect to hosts with a local IP address. This can be usefull in university networks. If you dont check this box Phex will always ignore local IPs.
