Can't connect

[BlackFalcon]

A few days ago I moved places, and in doing so, I updated the ADSL modem I get from my provider. Before the move, I could download anything just fine... I moved, changed nothing on my computer's settings, and now everything I try to download just sits on the ">> Connecting" status and never actually connects to anyone... the only differences are the modem I use, which is a Web Caster V110 and a different IP address... any ideas??

That modem is apparently also a router, so you will need to portforward it to get Bitcomet working properly

There is a guide for doing this in the Guides and HOWTO section

Also you should consult the manual for that modem/router to find the username/password(if you have it)

You're right about that, but the modem I have isn't on the list at portforward.com... so when I get to the "Next, Head to http://www.portforward.com/routers.htm and locate your Router model + brand. Then, locate BitComet, and follow the instructions onscreen." part of the guide, I don't know what instructions to follow...

I'm in Japan and therefore using a modem by a Japanese company... It's a Webcaster V110 made/distributed by NTT... I can't read enough Japanese to know what to look for, but my wife could probably help me if I need anything from the manual...

Do you know a similar modem model on that portforward.com list I could use or anything else I could do?

No i didnt see any other routers of that brand

maybe one of these two guides will help you

You may need to read the manual though to figure out the username and password to log into the router
