Online Armor doesn't do P2P still..

Well I thought I give it another test drive after a year or so using something else from PC Tools, still the same.. If I install back PCTOOLS Firewall Plus download speed returns. Under Online Armor it's blocks stuff and If you change the rules to what it should be it re-creates them but they're not correct. Anyway I just thought I mention this here.

I use OA on wireless and desktops that are not use in P2P way. Seems to work that way just too bad it can't work the other way.

 

Have a look at:

Escalader, i am afraid his problem is more related to this.

It's why i ditched OA v3 too...

 

Yes, I read the links. Bug is id'd for p2p users I hope a fix is coming soon.

The last link showed a temp work around using an ALL rule for 1 port.

 

Yes, although i haven't tried it. The bad thing with is workaround is that you practically open permanently a port for ANY application. A bit dangerous.

I am waiting for a bugfix version.

 

Yeah, I don't like that either.

If all our applications are specific as to ip for updating and port and are white listed it is not as bad, but a fix is in order for sure.

 

What p2p do you use ?

My laptop with OA and DC++ works well using WiFi (802.11abgn). Incoming TCP and UDP ports are properly handled.

 

Azurerus - Can't use OA after all I had issues with every system running it. Gone back to PC Tools Firewall Plus
