question with uploads??? If anyone has an answer to this, I would really appreciate it. I have files in my share folder which I would like to share on Limewire. It is my "Library". There are a lot of hits, but 0/0 uploads. I don't think they are bad files because I was able to download them from my other computer. I do have a "brick" in front of the globe, but I have turned off all firewalls. Also.. wouldn't have been able to download them from my other computer. One thing I did notice is when I was on my other computer (not the laptop which i uploaded from), it says that the speed is "ethernet". I have never seen that before. Could this be right? My options are stated "dsl". Lastly, Can someone try and download my files? I just want to make sure it is accessible out there. You can search: D*M**e M**t**a (artist) H*p H*p M*x V*l. I*I (title) R*B M*x V*l. * (title) E*r*h, W**d & F**e M**a M*x V*l. * (title) Please search under artist and/or title and try to downloand. Please let me know your responses.

In LW go tools > options > bug reports > view example. Scroll down to 'recieved incoming this session'... is it true or false? If it's false, there's a firewall somewhere that's preventing other people from downloading your files. Don't turn off your software firewall, just configure it for LW (only use 1 software firewall!). Firewall setup Your LW's probably detecting an internal firewall within your modem/router. See the sections about enabling UPnP & port forwarding in the thread below for solutions;) Connection problems? Check here first! Downloading at ethernet speed just means that you're downloading from someone on your LAN! |
Thank you for you response birdy. Much appreciation there. The "bug report" did report "false". Here is the thing..... I have disabled the "firewall" for Windows XP. I have SBC isp. I have a 2wire router. I went into my 2wire router settings. In there, firewall is "active". I go into settings. It allows me to pick applications which can pass through the firewall. Gnutella is already listed. I "allow" Gnutella to pass. The settings for Gnutella is already preset. TCP and UDP are already set at 6346. IP address is set as 69.109.251.179. I can not change settings for TCP or UDP. Is there something I am missing here? Also.. why is it that I was able to download from my other computer? |
FIXED THE PROBLEM!!! Brick wall is torn down!!! Thanks to the help of Birdy and Sleepless!!! My brick wall is gone and uploading is now possible. My solution was this: 1) I checked if i was in "false" mode on LM Bug report. And I was. 2) I turned off my windows xp firewall. 3) I changed the settings on my router... a) I have SBC isp with 2Wire router. b) Went into isp/router settings using my ip address (xxx.xx.x.x on the search bar) c) My firewall was "active". I changed the settings to "allow" applications to pass through the firewall. "Gnutella" was already a listed application. I just added it so it can pass through. The settings for "Gnutella" were already preset. I could not change them. d) I just took the settings it had and changed them on the LW firewall settings. Wala... brick wall was torn down. Don't know if this will help anyone, but I hope I gave an idea. |
