Not getting shit for search results for some reason. Also, there isn't a single chatroom listed. Anyone know what's going on?

Seems ok for me: 1776 chat channels and mp3-search-jackson turns up 3000 and climbing. I've noticed it gets pretty dead sometimes, mostly seems like a lot of primary connection switching, probably intentional sabotage by riaa lackeys but there's more than enough idiots on that network...

Well I reinstalled it and for some reason it's not getting a TCP connection now when it tries to configure itself. It's worked fine in the past; I have port 6699 (default) config'd on my router. Tried a few others and none seem to work now... wtf.

Well for me the problem is connecting to servers; a couple or few weeks ago things were fine but now even with new .wsx files and networks I'm just not getting connections. I haven't changed any firewall settings so that shouldn't be it. WPNP seems to be doing fine enough.

I could never get TCP or UDP connections on dial-up and still can't even after forwarding ports on my dsl router but it still works ok. Using 3.54 beta 4 on WPNP.

me neither...tho i never dug into to the help files to find out why. i'm not even sure what i'm missing - what does TCP/UDP do for you?

Weird... apparently my IP changed (from *.100 to *.101) and that was fucking up the port forwarding. No idea how that happened although I did just reboot recently after the last XP update a few days ago. I've never had my IP just up and change like that though. Fucking conspiracy.

All is well now.

I'm running 3.53. I was basing my previous judgments on last night, but right now results are a little slow on WPNP, and I only see 73 chat channels. Servers are still crap; does anyone know of certain ports I should be checking?
