Title: Connection discontinued
Post by: jerrold300 on January 29, 2010, 11:19:19 AM
One month ago I've installed aMule 2.2.6 and Ubuntu 9.10.

After 4 days working correctly, sudenly the connection became impossible.

I've attempted many times, also trying to follow the advises posted

but nothing new. a Mule doesn't connect.

Could somebody help me?

Thank you in advance

What exaclty did you try? Have you tried changing the port?

 ::) There seems to be an increasing number of users reporting sudden connection failure despite denying the fact that the configuration has changed.

- Firewall auto updates (maybe resetting allowed apps in the process)
- Providers starting to block 4662
- Routers assigning different IP breaking port forwarding
- ...

Don't know if its related, but, in recent SVN's, after the 3-4 day mark, my KAD always goes firewalled,  I have to manually disconnect and reconnect to 're-acquire' a high-ID, it seems to like connecting to a 'buddy' after this period of uptime.

Just gone 3 days uptime, KAD-only.

I thank everybody but I'm quite new to both Ubuntu and aMule.
Please be patient and, if I'm not too boring, could somebody take
my hand and drive me to the solution?

I'll be very gratefull
