Unable to download, and yet..

[Gulcasa]

Well, polobunny has helped me tremendously with setting up DC++, and everything was working alright for a while. However, no matter what I do, I can never seem to be able to download peoples file lists, and all of my searches show no results. It's not a problem with my firewall, either, as I have it disabled, and people are uploading from me.

Little help?

try switching from active to passive in the settings or vice versa

[pkt-zer0]

Yes, that solves it usually. But in passive mode, you can't download from other people who are in passive mode. So I suggest you set your IP manually in the Settings window, and make sure that the two ports you specified there are open. It's a bit of a hassle with a router, but it works sometimes. The funny thing is, sometimes it doesn't...

[Gulcasa]

Eh. I tried setting it to passive and still no luck.

[Gulcasa]

Er, no, it's not that. I'm sharing 7GB worth of stuff, so that's not the problem.

VBleh. Nothing works. I can't connect to active or passive users. When i try to view the file lists the connection -always- times out.. someone help. -.-

That shouldn't be possible if you're in passive mode... Try reinstalling DC+?

I uninstalled and reinstalled everything just now, and it seems to be working.
