QUESTION: Is there a way to bounce back a file request to my machine to verify that my machine is recieving and processing file upload requests?
I've installed Limewire and have no problem downloading files.
System specs:
WinXP Pro (no MS firewall)
nVIDIA's Nforce4 chipset hardware based firewall.
Norton anti-virus Auto-Protect
Linksys Broadband router
I've attempted to give Limewire access through the nVIDIA hardware firewall and Norton Auto-Protect, and enabled the Linksys Apps&Gaming Port Triggering on port 6346.
A Problem might be that my Broadband ISP assigns IP addresses automatically (which change if I recycle my broadband modem). I also have auto DHCP enabled to assign my net addresses between three machines (well, the raid rig's mobo went kabluey... but that's a different story..
I suspect that if there is an upload problem, I'll have to manually assign local addresses (ugh..) to enable the router's uPnP Forwarding.
Any suggestions, hints, and/or links to check would be most appreciated.
