hello,
i'am using amule since two month. it's only lately that i learn about the Low/High ID and that I change preferences /connection (I Have ADSL connection, I choose upload limit 20 ko/s).
Still the arrows are red and yellow.
I check the firewall, it's off.
I've check port 4662, the computer (mac os x.4) says is open but this link http://www.amule.org/testport.php says it's not...
What should I do ?
Thanks
Thibaut

You also need to set up port forwarding properly in your router:

You need to forward the ports that aMule uses in your router. Take a look at http://portforward.com/routers.htm, that page has detailed step-by-step instructions for pretty much every router on the market.

aMule uses three ports (see Preferences->Connection) that need to be forwarded:

• a client TCP port
• a client UDP port (this is the above port +3)
• and an eMule extended UDP port

Also, if you are running any firewall software (e.g., OS X's built-in firewall, which you can control via System Preferences->Sharing->Firewall) on your computer, you need to open the above ports there as well.

You can use the connection tester to check whether the client TCP port can be reached from the outside, that is, whether it is forwarded properly in your router and not blocked by any firewall software.

Good luck. :)
