I use Winmx, and have a 3Mb/s link. Unfortunately it is not allowing uploads.

Can anyone help as I think it's only fair that if anyone downloads they should allow uploads as well.

I'm using winmx 3.3 and I have set it to allow 11 connections with no bandwidth throttle. Is there anything else. I have shared a folder that has all my files in.

Please don't let this bandwidth go to waste!

I have 2 E1s going in to a router with firewall.

I am in the DMZ and have no blocked ports or IP translation.

The OS is XP.

Now that I am a prime target for all hackers reading this :;)
I don't think that any of this is the problem as there are no restrctions. I think it would be some setting in WinMX

if you have xp pro, make sure that the firewall is turned off... and maybe no one is dl'ing from you bc you don't have what they want... i dunno

XP firewall is off.

I have files that are popular (I had to be in a queue of over 100 to get them) and I get people say they can't see anything

It's sorted. There were no file type checked, so the folders were shared but not the files
