mirc +router = :(


Recommended Posts

first off i have a netgear mr814 wireless +4 port 10/100 router. i am wired in through the hub and not on the wireless framework. i am DMZ on the router so i don't understand why its not working.

i can connect to IRC just fine and recieve DCC send requests, but when i accept them, i get connection failed.

how do i configure my router to allow me to recieve DCC sends?

you shouldn't have to.... DCC problem is only with sends...it should work just fine. They are prolly the cause of it cuz routers don't block those even if you weren't DMZ... i can recieve from any IRC channel but just can't send cuz the router blocks the connection back to me untill i DMZ my PC. So tell them to check their stuff or maybe that bot isn't working

hmm you were right shotta. i just recently purchased my router (within the last month or so) and i thought i had already used mIRC on it to recieve files, and apparently i was right. i had to go through about 4 bots before i found one that was working though.

If you are DMZ then nothing should get blocked, unless you have a firewall on your pc...

yeah, as i stated tho, it's not anything on his PC that was the matter, it was the bot he was downloading from.. they were having problems or just behind a router themselves... you can't send successfully from behind a router with NAT enabled.
