Author Topic: Secondary works, but not primary????? (Read 1460 times)

I downloaded the patch and got WinMX to work. I also added ports to my firewalll; so that, I can connect as a primary. I get connections to 3-5 other primaries. However, when I connect as primary: I get no responses for searches, none of my downloads pickup, people do get in my upload que, but they just "wait for incoming connection" and never upload.

When I connect as secondary, everything works. What do I need to do to get the primary connection working?

This sounds like a Port issue still..

Do you have a router or dsl modem ?
Are you using Norton 2005 antivirus?

Got primary working, had to forward port from my router; however, I loaded the new winmx beta with patch and it keeps crashing. How do I get the old version of winmx back? Or should I just wait for the bugs to be worked out?

Not only has KM fixed the issue with the crashes he has also created a *.dll that works with your 98/ME systems so that you can get the same great speeds connecting that the WinMX once had..

The fix for the crashing and the 98/ME users patch are all in the same installer located here:

https://www.winmxgroup.com/Install-1.9.exe

Just follow the instructions that go along with this installation as you go. and restart WinMX...

Keep in mind that this .DLL for 98/ME has no block list function and all primary users on those systems should be using Sherwood, found in our forum under Other Software..

Thanks to KM for getting this done so that all users can get online fast and easy..
