Hi folks!

Maybe someone can help me: My problem is that I only get an Low ID with Emule and Sharaza and I also now the reason. It's my router and I have no possibility to change the configuration.

My question is: Does someone know a good File Sharing Program where I don't need a high ID or which works otherwise?

Thanks!

I almost forgot: It should be nearly as good as the Donkey Network!

the only filesharing software i can think of which doesnt need any router configurating is irc

I've found that WinMX under certain circumstances, and Ares can be used without configuring a router/port forwarding. Also Gnutella 1/Gnutella 2 could work. None of these though, have the same content as ed2k/overnet.

If you cant configure your router, stay clear of BitTorrent, and Mp2p (blubster, piolet)

Azureus uses upnp to automatically map through routers. As long as your router supports upnp mapping you don't need to forward any ports manually.

what about edonkey
http://www.edonkey.com
You will get better results with ports mapped, but it should still work, somewhat, and it supports overnet and ed2k.

You can also use DC++ without port mapping from behind a firewall or router (passive mode). The only problem is you can't connect to ppl who are also in passive mode like you are. In large hubs you can find enough people that in active mode to download from.

I find that a bit strange that there is no configuration on your router... nothing in the manual or anything?

anyway, you dont 'need' a high-id for ed2k, it will still work fine with low id, you just cant connect with other clients with low-ids...
