Shukie Posted October 1, 2006 Share Posted October 1, 2006 from reading the guide, that means i still have something blocking my connection. i'm using a router and i already forwarded my port and setup my configurations following the guide. I don't have any software firewalls. what is the problem here? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shukie Posted October 1, 2006 Author Share Posted October 1, 2006 oh and also, the guide says if the peers list shows "remote" it means healthy and if it shows "local / Bat Traversal", which is what i am getting, it means somethings still in the way of my connection Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kluelos Posted October 1, 2006 Share Posted October 1, 2006 You have a firewall blocking your listen port. Maybe you didn't forward your router's port correctly, maybe you have a software firewall you don't know about. In any event, you need to figure out what's blocking your listen port. You can test the port itself (with BitComet running) at www.canyouseeme.org. As long as it tells you anything except that the port is open, you've got it blocked.

Shukie Posted October 1, 2006 Author Share Posted October 1, 2006 i'm not sure if this is the problem, but in the 192.168.0.1 page, there is this firewall section with an allow/deny that i can add/remove. although i think the firewall exists in every kind of router and the point of port forwarding is to get through that if i'm correct, but my router is d-link di624 if that helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shukie Posted October 1, 2006 Author Share Posted October 1, 2006 i figured out that it is the dhcp blocking my static ip so i changed the dhcp range and changed my static ip and re-forwarded my port. i tested with www.canyouseeme.org and it worked. but still, all i can see are local and some nat traversal peers. is it possible for anything else to block me? :blink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The UnUsual Suspect Posted October 1, 2006 Share Posted October 1, 2006 Please test your port as klueos suggested. If it says your not open, then go to command prompt, type "ipconfig /all" then compare the ip address to the one in your virtual server settings on your router. If it is NOT, then change the ip address in the router, then go to portforward.com and follow the instructions to set a static IP address in windows. I also recommend doing that step with every computer on your network, to make sure none of them take your IP address in the future. If you don't do this, you may have to change router settings when rebooting. Suspect Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
