Bcoan12 Posted January 26, 2007 Report Share Posted January 26, 2007 Im fairly new to this but i've gathered that if the yellow status appears at the bottom it is because the ports aren't being forwarded properly...? But when i follow the guide for port forwarding it asks for your router model but i have no router...my ethernet cord goes from my PC to the wall. Any help would be greatly appreciated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rexdimos Posted January 26, 2007 Report Share Posted January 26, 2007 then the university has a modem and most likely modem router Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rexdimos Posted January 26, 2007 Report Share Posted January 26, 2007 or you can learn the modem of the university and you must have the authorization to use it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Switeck Posted January 27, 2007 Report Share Posted January 27, 2007 Don't be too upset if you're consistantly getting 5-10 KB/sec download speeds.There's many on 'broadband' connections which are lucky to get 1 KB/sec.You won't be in college forever. ...find friends with outside connections and get files that way.

soulmates Posted January 27, 2007 Report Share Posted January 27, 2007 Hm... relax it's always like this. You can be call "lucky" to dl about 10kB.
