Please wait while the ports of your eMule are being tested...
Testing IP: (xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx)
Obfuscation: Disabled
Starting TCP connection test...
TCP test failed! UDP test will not be performed.
Connection test finished.
Results in detail:
TCP connection test failed.
It was not possible, to establish a TCP connection to your eMule.
Other users will only be able to connect to you with the help of a server, resulting in a low ID for you. While eMule still works, this will give you several disadvantages. Therfore it is highly recommended to solve this problem.
How to resolve port problems... Something is interfering with your network communications. There are two main reasons for this:
If you are using a firewall, ensure that your firwall don't block the required ports! You might need to set a rule to allow the ports to be available.
If you use a router, make sure that your router forwards the required ports to your local IP!
You can find more details and guides [here in the online help.](http://www.emule-project.net/home/perl/help.cgi?rm=show_entries&cat_id=232)
And most importantly, this is what I want to change:

For the router part, enable UPnP in your application and router, it will auto configure ports and routing.
Disable firewall with UFW, see from there if it works, then enable firewall and configure it properly for your applications.
By default, on Linux, listening ports are closed unless you actually have a program actively listening to them. So there is no need to explicitly start a firewall and “open” them.
I’ve tried again with another program that requires ports 2234 to 2239. I’ve opened the six ports like shown above and I’ve stopped and disabled the ufw firewall that I had enabled before, since it isn’t needed according to
The program has a bot that checks the port and it tells me my port is closed. But it’s already opened in my router and the program is using those ports so the firewall should be allowing them. What else can I do?
Your router relays the traffic to your computer.
It has got an IP - and your computer gets an IP from it.
What you need to do is forward those ports to either the same, or different, ports on the IP that your computer uses.
… port forwarding - not just opening ports on the router …
If you just open the port on the router - your computer will not see it.
This port forwarding needs to be done on the router - through it’s interface.
it appears that you did that, indeed - sorry that I haven’t read trough the whole rather old thread.
you assigned the forwarding to 192.168.1.122 - make sure it is actually the IP of your computer,
that your computer always gets assigned this address
You could always, at least temporarily, shut down the computers firewall
to eliminate that point of possible failure while you are trying and troubleshooting your problem.
… to decrease complexity …
I believe there is an issue with the router. I’ve checked my ports on a website and all TCP ports opened by UPnP are open and all TCP ports opened manually in NAT/PAT are closed. This program gives an error for UPnP so I have no way to open the ports unless I fix the program or the manual port forwarding. Why wouldn’t manual port forwarding work?
I’ve called the technical support and they weren’t able to open the ports either.
Since manual port forwarding appears to be disabled but the UPnP is working, is there a program that opens as many ports as I want through UPnP?
I’ve tried this script but I got UPnP disabled. I’ve got problems with using UPnP with some programs but others work fine. I just need to find a program like this that works fine for me.
Shouldn’t you open a support ticket at whatever brand your router is? This isn’t a router support forum.
And how exactly could they test that? Anyway, demand a new router then. (I still doubt forwarding isn’t working since it works with UPnP allegedly and we can’t know that if you don’t do the tests.)
As for testing, I already told you what you can do. And as far as random scripts go, why don’t you search repo/AUR first? There is miniupnpc for example.
