hi everybody........I am really tired to keep thinking the problem of using p2p through ntl but maybe i have got something here:

As you can see the UPnP is not supported. I posted about p2p before and it seems no one is having problem with p2p. I am just wondering what is shown on your p2p software?

Not sure - I have only ever tried torrent type P2P, and that via a router with upnp enabled - I got extremely variable download speeds, which I assumed to be due to only a small number of people sharing the files, when speed was low, in contrast, the more 'popular' files were quite fast.

Should not be the problem of the p2p software setting though, i had been using dsl freedom 512k from ntl last year, downloaded 50k+ day and night using p2p software. Now i have got 1.5m and only downloading around 25k *-*

Information regarding UPnP is available from microsoft here

have you tried adding an exception so that UPnP is enabled?

I have already closed the windows firewall.....

Chris W · 17-10-2005, 19:23

hmm... i see now that you are running without a firewall at all.... not a good idea!!

btw i have removed your ip from your post to as it is not a good idea to post this on public forums
