arrows vs. cloud-like icon in "Devices" tab?


Recommended Posts

In BitTorrent Sync's Devices tab on one of my Windows laptops, there's a cloud-like icon next to all the folders shared with my S4. All other devices have two opposite-pointing arrows, including my other Android device, my Note 2. The other Windows laptop I checked has only the arrows icon, and no cloud. wtf? I've attached a pic.

Arrows mean direct connection. Cloud means relayed connection. That I found in FAQ or somewhere long ago when I started using sync.

This difference probably means your S4 is on mobile connection if it is phone, even if it is in the same house or something. Or if that is normal computer, it is on different network/ISP and direct connection is not achievable at that moment.
