Ok. Thanks for letting me know that I need a primary connection. Now
atleast I know what I have to do. No router or firewall. Here is what
I did:
went to settings and selected:
Listen on port 6699 for incoming TCP connections
Send and receive UDP datagrams on port 6257
Then I selected a primary connection and tried to connect. Got this:
You cannot make a primary connection to the WinMx Peer Network for the
following reasons:
- No TCP port for incoming messages
- No UDP port for incoming and outgoing packets
Thanks for any info on what other settings to try.
