Pretty weird situation.

Basically I'm on wireless internet and I'm trying to connect to mIRC and a channel on DC++, yet both wont seem to let me connect. One of them say 'Your direct connect client has supplied an invalid IP address in a connection request (client sent 1**.***.0.2, you have 90.***.**.120' (Obviously the stars are numbers).

Is there anything I can do to sort this out? Do I need to change certain settings? I've tried the settings in DC++ to change my I.P address and put in the one it's saying I've got, yet it's no different. Anybody got any ideas?

Hi JP and welcome to CTH,

See the instructions on port forwarding here (http://portforward.com/cportsnotes/dc++/dc++setup.htm). They should help.
