Qbert Posted July 19, 2006 Report Share Posted July 19, 2006 It has worked OK on another Wifi network (at a public library), but not at my current one (another library).At the current place, I get speeds of 0.0, though it occasionally goes as high as 1.0 kB/s (both up and down). At the previous place, I could get over 100.At this location, I sometimes get the red circle with white exclamation mark (meaning a NAT error, I assume) in the bottom right, but most of the time there's nothing there. I never get the green check mark.I tried doing what the speed guide says, but I get stuck at the port forwarding website because I have no idea what router the network uses.Is the problem due to restrictions imposed by the Wifi network?Would it help if I set up a static IP? It's currently dynamic.Is there anything else I can do?I'm not very technically savvy, so I hope I can understand your replies.Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted July 19, 2006 Report Share Posted July 19, 2006 If it's not a network for which you can configure port settings, chances are, you're not going to get through, period. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qbert Posted July 19, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 19, 2006 [useless quoting removed by moderator]How do I find out whether I can configure the port settings or not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted July 19, 2006 Report Share Posted July 19, 2006 Well seeing as how it's not your network, you probably can't... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qbert Posted July 19, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 19, 2006 OK, thanks.So I guess there's no point in setting up a static IP. Or is there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Switeck Posted July 20, 2006 Report Share Posted July 20, 2006 And even if you can, you probably SHOULDN'T.(Though it would probably be ok to try UPnP... ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qbert Posted July 21, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 21, 2006 UPnP is already enabled - i.e., "Enable UPnP port mapping" is checked.Anything else I can try? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted July 21, 2006 Report Share Posted July 21, 2006 Set speeds very low...use Speed Guide (CTRL+G) and use the xx/96k setting.Reduce half-open connection limit.Disable DHT...if you haven't already.Enable P.E. -- FORCED mode, disable legacy connections.Turn on lazy bitfield...Turn on low cpu....and hope that works.

Qbert Posted July 24, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2006 [useless quoting removed by moderator]Thanks.I did all that except:1. "Reduce half-open connection limit"2. "Enable P.E. - FORCED mode, disable legacy connections".I couldn't find those. I check under "advanced". Can you tell me where they are and what P.E. stands for please?Also, I emailed you; we can talk that way if you prefer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
