LocalSeer 0 Report post Posted November 30, 2005 Approximately every half an hour anyone connected to me is disconnected. There is no trouble establishing the connection and it runs smoothly till sudden disconnection. There is no problem with someone connecting through the local are network. I believe it is something with my router, but I can't find anything. I use a DI-604 Ethernet Broadband Router, my computer has McAfee security center and I also have windows XP home edition firewall on. I've tried turning off both McAfee and windows firewall, along with using DMW which supposibly opens all ports in my router for my computer. Since others can see my computer, it means the proper port is open. I also have no problem connecting when others host and it is not the programs fault as it happens with anything that I host. I'm completly lost to what to do and need some help please. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Something like that? I'm sure you've thought of setting the pc as an FTP server so they can connect to it. Just a thought. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
