Yellow Lights! Arrrgh!

when you went into your router did you uncheck the box labeled

Block Anonymous Internet Requests

if you did all three correctly, there is no reason that it should not work. the last 2 steps are obviously the simpliest and canyouseeme only deals with the first 2 steps, I would go over the router setup again...if you did something wrong that's where the problem undoubtably lies.

[lgerard]

which range of ports are you using?

LGerard - Here is what I have configured, maybe that will give more info:

Router Config:

Local IP Addr: 192.168.2.1
DHCP Server: Enable
Starting IP Addr: 192.168.2.100
Port Range: 50100 - 50110 (Protocol: Both, IP Addr: 192.168.2.100)
Block Anonymous Internet Requests: Unchecked

Windows Firewall: Ports 50100 - 50110 are configured as exceptions

BitTornado:
- Port Range: 50100 - 50110
- Randomized: Unchecked
- UPnP Port Forwarding: Disabled

Thanks for the help.

ya got me

the ony thing I would suggest is that since the last 2 steps are the simpliest and hardest to screwup, that you try isolating the router.

connect your pc directly to the modem and see if it works that way...maybe you can then narrow the problem.

LGerard - good idea, I'll give it a try. Thx.

Thanks for all of the help so far. I am still seeing a yellow light but I was wondering if my virus protection software could be causing problems? I am running McAfee and SuperAntiSpyWare concurrently. Does anyone know if that is a problem?

Thanks.

the anti spyware program should have no effect. If the mcafee program has a firewall...then disable it (you also should not have the security set to the very highest levels). If you are still yellow when hooked directly to the modem you have made a mistake somewhere in the xp firewall or specifing the ports in your client, hard as that is to believe
