Mine still doesn't work and OOL refuses to tell me that they're blocking ports.

OMG IT ACTUALLY WORKED!! I tried EVERY other suggestion on the forums but this is the only one that worked. For shady i did not have to change anything with my firewall to work. I couldnt connect at first but that was because i copied the pw wrong, duno what your doing wrong sorry

I'm also an OOL user in Brooklyn (Kensington area), and ALL of my P2P clients stopped working since the last weekend after the OOL internet service was down for an upgrade.


After the last-weekend OOL upgrade:

LimeWire cannot connect;

eMule cannot connect;

BearShare cannot connect;

various other P2P programs that I've downloaded to see if they will connect, CANNOT CONNECT.


So the story that OOL reps give us about OOL not having anything to do with us not being able to connect to P2P programs is BULLSHIT!!
