sharing files

[wolfman13_]

   I seem to be having a major issue with file sharing. I have hundreds of files in my shared file but no one seems to be able to access them! I am using v.3.53 and it is running on an OS Windows 8.1. Any assistance would be appreciated since I am getting ignored by quite a few users who think I am a leech!

do you connect with a primary connection or a secondary connection?

For the outgoing TCP Connections it uses don't use a proxy server. connect directly while the incoming is checked listen on port  6699 and the  in/out udp is for port 6257.

a quick check is to join a channel called renegades and type !port ... if it returns that they are open you should be golden ... for extra verification ask someone in the room if they will start a download from you... if that works your client is working...

..ports not open? you will need to forward them... go to www.portforward.com for instructions ....


@wmw help room admin: you need a port test too...
