do you have a highID?

you can see that at the little earth at the bottum right corner

-> green arrows highID
-> yellow arrows lowID

also it helps if you read the link to understand how ed2k and *mule works:

have fun

thanks stefanero
Ive gotr yellow arrows so low id

i did a port test and it said
-----
Error: TCP port 4662 is unavailable. Make sure your firewall or router is allowing/forwarding this TCP service port and your ED2K client is running (i.e. aMule, eMule).

Detailed Error Message
TCP Error 110 Connection refused

Explanation
The connection timed out, meaning the port is being blocked or incorrectly forwarded by a firewall or your computer is turned off :)
-----
Ive turned off my firewall but still get the same message, but i do seem to bew able to download but only at around 4kbs

any ideas

thanks again

so you have a router infront of your mac?

try to login in the webcontrol panel and setup
portforwarding, virtuel server or nat

all 3 things stand for teh same thing, just check your manual on howto do it, they often do examples with http-servers...

and forward

4662/tcp
4665/udp
and
4672/udp

to the ip address of your mac-box

that should give you highID,
