I am firewalled. But I dont have a firewall!
I did the test and it said that I might have a "stealth firewall"
The hell is that? :angry:

you are behind a router and need to forward your ports boss :lol:

:( Unfortunately now I am behind a NAT router also.
I've tried port forwarding but I still get Firewalled status.
I have a Zyxel Zyair B-2000 v.2 router which does not give the option to forward ports based on TCP/UDP, it just says forward these ports to this IP.
Has anyone gotten rid of the Firewalled status using this router :helpsmile:

where are you?? home school etc.??



Posted by: littlestevee

I am at home. This is my computer that I bought myself!
I live in a apartment building, maybe someone has a router in the office downstairs?
If so, how do I get around it?

have you disabled windows xp firewall?



Posted by: littlestevee

Yes, I have!



Posted by: MUSLEMAN

does the whole appartment use the same connection??



Posted by: Cyril

Do you have a firewall running - if so which one?



Posted by: littlestevee

I don't have a firewall running
No, the whole apartment isn't using the same ADSL as me



Posted by: Cyril

This is very strange because if you arenot behind a router and have no firewall should be no problems. Have you tried typing RETEST in to message screen at bottom of Overnet to see if it will change? Make sure you have no other applications open.

Posted by: littlestevee

What port should I use for TCP?

Posted by: MUSLEMAN
