[sf-lug] Getting a Low ID on Amule

[Blake Haggerty]

"aMule should support uPnP, and so does dd-wrt. I suggest turning that 
on in both and just letting that handle port assignment. "

 

aMule does support UPnP, damn, didn't even think of that. I will try this at home...

 

"Also, if your assigned IP address happens to end in a 0, you will always 
get a low id." 

 

Do you know why that is??

 

Thank you for your suggestion!

aMule should support uPnP, and so does dd-wrt. I suggest turning that

Also, if your assigned IP address happens to end in a 0, you will always 
get a low id.
