im having some problems connecting with with my firend's computer using peer-to-peer connection.. ie. AIM, MirC, my FTP server..etc..
we are both on an ATTbi connection..
is there any other way to share files (send/receive) between our computers?
i talked to attbi and they said they do not support p2p connections..wtf?
also my friend has a SB4200 modem.. and he was Uploading at 2MB/s for a couple of days.. now he cant since ATT called him that they got the wrong serial number..now he's down to 256kb/s, same as mine..
Cant connect to another ATTbi user??

i think i noticed something similar to your problem at hand. On AIM, i haven't been able to connect to other AT&T users for a while. And i don't think it has anything to do with opening ports.. such as 5199,4099 and what not.. if those are correct, not really sure, but i DO have the correct ones if someone needs thme for AIM, because i opened them and yet i still cannot connect to my fellow peers users AT&T near my area. You can always hop onto a lan with your friend, you get much faster speeds on a lan for sending and recieving files.

Re: Cant connect to another ATTbi user??
That means that they can't help you. It doesn't mean that it won't work. For example: They also don't support LINUX, BSD or any other O/S than Windows or MAC, but if you are technically inclined enough, you can get those O/S's to work just fine.Originally posted by f1ipm0dsqd
