I just switched ISPs and got a new modem. Now, i try to download using DC++ or bit torrent but in DC I get a "Connection Timeout" when I try to download. In BT it just doesn't download.

I phoned up my ISp and they told me that they don't limit downloading in any way so i figure it must be something I'm doing wrong.

I recently setup a network so I have a router connected to my modem and a WAP connected to the router also. I'm not sure why it would have something to do with this.

My modem is: http://www.ndo.com/ndo/Products/Voya...demrouter.html which incendently is also the same site as my ISP.

Have you ever logged into your router and enabled the ports that your BT/DC++ uses?

I had the same problem with DC++ Nailed. All I did was change the settings from Active, to Passive. It still doesnt work 100% but atleast i can download from some HUBS

[NaiLed]

yeah, i've leant about port forwarding and stuff now. i still havent got DC++ to work but i have bit torrent.

i'm doing something wrong to get DC working. i'll have a go tomorrow

[ShadowDragons]

If you figure out how to get DC working, please tell me. :P

[NaiLed]

i've given up. i forwarded the ports and used them for DC but it still sas "Failed to create port mapping" or something

4. No Warez/Serials/Cracks/Hax0ring/SS Cheats/etc, including links. This includes discussions of bittorrent/DC or other file sharing programs. It’s just not what these boards are for.


:P

Bittorent is a method of data communication and was not designed for illegal use, so I don't see why that rule is in place.

LimeWire is good, has most of the songs I want. It's just that DC++ was easier to use because you could download the whole album at once instead of having to download file-by-file.

If I ever get it working I'll post it here.

I can get speeds of 10MB/s+ from my university DC++ hub.

Yes, that's MegaBytes.

I can get speeds of 10MB/s+ from my university DC++ hub.

Yes, that's MegaBytes.

I can't because no one ever has so fast upload.
