Filtering IP's for downloading
 
I am behind a firewall ( a HW Router) and my understanding is that I will never be able to connect to other users behind firewalls at their end. It's born out by the fact that push-to-transfers never get anywhere.

My question is that no matter what I do with various filters, the download window will still come up with IP addresses that I don't want it to download from... i.e. 192.168.*.*

How do I stop it trying to download from this IP

Also, just like to say that this is by far my favourite Gnutella Client that I've used on MacOSX. Thanks

filtering the search results by ip addresses to not show files that cant be downloaded (like 193.168.*.* and 10.*.*.* and 127.*.*.*) is a feature all the clients need but not one has.
why has noone realized this yet?

Hi,

unfortunately we don't filter this automatically but you can do the following:

- Add the mentioned private IP's to the 'Filtered Hosts' list. ( You can use the * )
- When searching turn on the 'Filtered Hosts' option below the search field.

Now your search results should not contain the IP's anymore. I guess this should also work for automated search if you leave the 'Filtered Hosts' option on. But I'm not sure right now. ;-)
