So am I firewalled or not?
« on: July 13, 2008, 10:20:22 AM »

Hello,

The globe icon on the bottom-right has a green arrow on the left (indicating all is well), and a yellow arrow on the right (indicating a problem). The text next to it says "www.video-webcam.com (Kad: firewalled)".

However when I do a connectivity test at http://www.amule.org/testport.php it tells me that all is well.

Thanks!!

ED2K is High ID and Kad is firewalled. The testing website only tests the TCP port (used by the ED2K network). To get an "OK" Kad connection you have to open your firewall/router for the UDP port set in preferences (and have a little patience, as the Kad connection always starts as firewalled).
