DC++

Unable to get onto DC++ anymore

Asked by Eric Johnson

I have been an active member of DC++ for some time now but I recently had to have a new network card fitted to my pc (64 bit windows 7). Now DC++ will not let me onto the system. I can log on and DC++ does hashing of my files but I can't access anything at all, not even if I change to Passive mode. The router should still be ok as it hasn't been touched but I am now getting this message:

Connectivity: Determining the best connectivity settings...
Connectivity: Local network with possible NAT detected, trying to map the ports...
Connectivity: Port mapping: Failed to map the Transfer port (49380 TCP) with the NAT-PMP interface
Connectivity: Port mapping: Failed to initialize the MiniUPnP interface
Connectivity: Port mapping: Failed to create port mappings
Connectivity: Active mode could not be achieved; a manual configuration is recommended for better connectivity

I am not at all conversant with this technical side of things. Can anyone please point me in the right directions to sort it out.

Have checked my Kaspersky Firewall and it is set to allow DC++. Windows Firewall is also set to allow access but is not actually switched on.

Suddenly have been able to get on in Passive Mode, now I have to sort out how to get it back into Active mode
