Basic troubleshooting

When you openBlubster an the bottom centre of the application the text should quickly change from “Connecting…” to “Connected to the Blubster Network”. . If this does not happen you have not successfully configured Blubster.

This can be remedied in many cases by doing one or both of these two actions:

1.- Turn off any firewall software that you currently have running. In the case of XP users this could be running without your knowledge. To stop this, follow these instructions:

* Right click on the network connections settings icon in the bottom right of your screen and left click on “Open Network Connections”
* Right click on your current network connection icon and left click on “Properties”.
* Left click on the tab marked “Advanced”
* Uncheck the “Internet Firewall Protection” box and click “OK”
* You will now need to shut down Blubster and restart. You will also need to close your current Internet connection and re-connect for these changes to be applied.

2.- You may find that this does not solve the problem. If this is so then you may need to change your port configuration in your router settings.

* Protocol: UDP.
* Port: 41170
* Action: Allow inbound traffic, redirect to your computer.

-"As you can see you need to open port 41170 with UDP traffic!"
