should be something with your Firewall and your ports!

Have you tried to search in passive mode?

It sounds like you need to open ports for your client, either in your windows firewall settings, or if you are using a router, in your router.

which one? windows or router?

if you are running xp got to your window firewalls setting and open a tcp and udp port for apexdc++..if you have XP you will find it in the control panel.

If you are behind a router, you must have both the windows firewall, either open or turned off, then get into your router setup, in the port range forwarding.

No, doesn`t help but thanks anyway.I tried checking the ports in the apex connection settings and the TCP failed to connect but the UDP is good and it says partially connected.Maybe this is the cause?

[Satan 1]

Yes this is what we have been trying to get at. Your only partially connected because you ports aren't open :roll:

Go to settings and change yourself to passive, then it will work.

Yes, it worked .Thank`s all you guys

Yes, fine, but if you have real IP address, you should try hard to set up active mode. There are many advantages for you and the community.

It would seem many people lack the knowledge to set up active mode. So passive mode is the simpler option. Too many variables affect active so even if you do get it working it may borksor on reboot.
