NATT Questions!

Does Passive to Passive Connection need HUB support?

Does Passive to Passive Work with different clients .. For example Strong DC++ to Apex DC++ or the DC++ client?

Whats the success rate for Passive to Passive Connection.

How can it be increased.

Hub and client side support of NATT is necessary, as for my own rate of Pass.<->Pass. connections it worked but there are some rules you have to abide by to ensure this, passive users (a) and (... (a) want's to download file x from (, it has to be serial by which i mean only (a) can download from (, ( cannot initiate a file transfer with (a) until (a) is done. Hopefully you understand everything I said, as for increasing chances of a successful transfer just ensure each other is not downloading from each other same with searching.

I forgot to mention the largest part of this post, this is ADC protocol specific, not supported under NMDC. as NMDC will not be worked on anymore.

yes but not explicitly; as long as hubs allow standard traffic, they don't need to support anything particular. so NAT-T should work with most current hubs.

yes.

as far as i have tried, it has always worked for me.

there is a survey on <http://dcpp.wordpress.com/2010/06/14/nat-traversal-compatibility-survey/> to gather feedback and try to establish statistics.

DC++ only supports NAT traversal on ADC hubs, but i believe StrongDC++ (and ApexDC++) support it on NMDC hubs too. ;)

thank you guys

Am using http://starhub.alfaru.com/ ,its an ADC hub and it should support NATT ?

or should I be using ADCH++ or other hub softwares?

[Guest Toast]

it should allow such protocol requests without stopping em atleast if it follows the protocol spec but i havent tested it so i cant say if it does so but adch++ does.

for additional software
