| Guest | What does 'blocked' mean in Port Status I've been using FolderShare for awhile, and it seems to be working OK. When I look at the Port Status page in the Settings, it shows four ports listed. Under the heading "Initiate Connections", all of the ports say "OK". Under the heading "Accept Connections", all of them say "Blocked". Is this normal? When does "Accept Connections" come into play, if at all? If it matters, I'm running behind a firewall with NAT. |

router has been configured (manually or by uPNP) to forward those incoming ports to the LAN address used by the computer on which you are running FolderShare. Any firewall on that computer would also need to be configured to allow incoming FS connections on those ports.
have not yet come across one where it did help. See below.
any performance improvement between having Accept Connections shown as OK versus them shown as Blocked. Tony | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
