hub vows, no access

[shreeyashattal 0]

Hello,

i'm trying to put up a hub, but i'm facing lots of issues

1. I'm using yhub as a host, however i can connect to the hub only via the same computer that hosts, i'm unable to access the hub from a remote computer over the internet

i get a error sayin remote host did not not respond

2. i can log into public hubs, but unable to browse through file lists and perform search

I'm using a direct connection, modem>>desktop computer, so i don't thing port forwarding should be the issue here, could the problem be with yhub or apexdc++?

I also have a query, if the hub were to be accessed by users in nearby areas using the the same internet service provider, will it act like a lan and download speeds be higher than usual?

thanking in advance.

To answer the first part of your post - looks like a firewall of some sort is blocking the connections. Try disabling it (including the windows one). If you don't have a firewall on your computer, then, as you say your connection is direct, your ISP may be blocking the connections using a keep-state firewall (means that inbound connections are not allowed).

I also have a query, if the hub were to be accessed by users in nearby areas using the the same internet service provider, will it act like a lan and download speeds be higher than usual?

Depends on your ISP if his inner network allows faster speeds (most probably it doesn't).

is there any way i can find that out? n if yes, is there a way around it? via a proxy?

Proxy is slow. Most probably using a passive mode will sort it out. If not, ask your ISP if they are blocking anything.
