A reply on a different topic made want do a research on something I was told on another forum.
I have been getting ' You're behind a firewall ' messages in Overnet. I don't have any kind of firewall software installed in my computer and the firewall in XP is disabled. The computer isn't conected to a router. I've tried changing the ports and nothing happened. I'm using a Motorola Surfboard SB5100.
Anyway, I was told in the Overnet forum that the reason I was getting those messages is because my isp gave an private ip adress but, after doing some research I found out that this is quite unlikely.
My question is: Is this true? Or is the source of the problem something completely different?
P.S. I have a 512K/s connection and my max download speed in Overnet was 4K/s (2.*K/s and 1.*K/s)
