tomrwaller Posted May 27, 2014 Report Share Posted May 27, 2014 Hi all. I was hoping someone may be able to help me overcome an issue I am experiencing with regard to BTSync and direct connections. I have a NAS at home running BTSync latest. I have a laptop with the client, also latest. When I am connected to my home network, Sync is working well. The problem comes when I am trying to connect from an external network. My home connection has several static IP addresses, one of which I have dedicated to Sync. This has the relevant port NAT'd to the internal address of the interface listening on Sync. I have defined the host and port in the client properties and have unchecked the options to use trackers and relays etc. as I wanted this to connect directly. However, the client never seems to connect. I see an entry in my firewall indicating the connection was allowed, but I don't see any devices connected. In my debug log, I seem to get lots of entries like this: [2014-05-27 12:15:27] Send ping to peer (0000000000000000000000000000000000000000) for share [share id removed]:[2014-05-27 12:15:27] ping [ip]:[port] This just repeats and repeats... Anyone have any ideas what I'm doing wrong here? All the best. Tom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomrwaller Posted May 27, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 27, 2014 Eugh - ignore me. I checked out the log on the NAS (NAS4FREE) and it appears the server was listening on a different interface than the one I had selected in the extension and was therefore failing to receive the forward port. Since this is actually an issue with the extension, I will leave you all in peace Thanks. Tom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
