I just recently started using eMule and noticed that my up/download speeds suck. So I click on Options > Connection > Test ports. The eMule test ports website comes up but my "TCP test failed! UDP test will not be performed." Why?!

*I have opened these ports (TCP 4662 and UDP 4762) on my internal WinXP firewall. I even tried briefly turning off the WinXP firewall.

*I'm also using a D-Link DI-524 router. I opened the ports (TCP 4662, UDP 4672, and TCP 4711) on my router to allow incoming traffic by following the directions from D-Link's website. Here's where I get confused though, I'm not sure which IP address to use... I went to the command prompt and typed in "ipconfig". I first used that IP while opening the ports in my router. But since that didn't work, I noticed that eMule's website was testing a different IP. So I went back and replaced the old IP address with the IP address that eMule and whatismyip.com gave me. But that didn't work either.

Basically, which IP should I use? How can I tell if I'm behind another firewall?

Thanks for your help!

If im not wrong, u should be using the IP number that is found in the DHCP Client Log thingie(Not the WAN IP).....Your specific computer should have an IP like 192.168.0.10X. Use that IP to forward the ports and you should be ok. Hope it works ;)
