Actually, I've Phex running right at the moment.
It took a while till the firewall disappeared (and I hope it won't come back) after I configurated the firewall.
However, I get a lot of "Connection timed out" and "503 service not available" and "Software caused connection to fail".
In general I see a lot of " Negotiate 0.6 handshake", but only 1-2 ultrapeers can connect every now and then. Peers can't connect at all.
Something I do not have when running Phex on XP.
So, is there anything else wrong with my configuration??

p.s another messages see is " I'm a leaf node" or something like that.....

Try to set it to "Force Ultrapeer" and check if you get better connections. Phex can tend to have trouble finding other vendor ultrapeers with open slots (503) due to vendor preferencing.

Well, I tried.........but no joy......
The Ultrapeers just won't stay connected and the peers are not even able to connect........

Besides, with the older version of Phex running on XP I haven't had any of this........could it be that it is connected with the newer version??

I have Phex now exactly configurated like I have it on XP (and there I get up to 60/70 KB), yet no changes here on Vista. Ultrapeers connected for not longer than 60-90 sec and not more than 5 at a time and Peers can't connect at all....
Do I miss something....??
Any idea??
