Well I have a Linksys router BEFSR41 and I did everything that you told me to do and I still get nothing. I open up edonkey and I can't get to their http: homepage let alone connect to the server. I have a static ip address and I opened up the ports just like the description. I haven't been succesful in opening any of the p2p file-sharing programs.
Hmmm, I am puzzled especially since you've written that you haven't been successful with
any P2Ps.
This would lead me to believe that this is not an EDonkey issue or router issue.
Instead, I'm thinking it's either a firewall thing or is it possible your ISP is restricting certain ports???
