True And Dc++

[geronimo]

I have just read the thread about the trojan in true's router driver installation because my anti virus program found it too.

I don't understand how but I managed to connect my adsl through network connections without installing the router drivers. I know they are not installed because there is no sign of the router in device manager however my internet connection is good.

What's the problem you may well ask?

I now wish to use DC++ and through trying to set this up I realise that I need to install the router drivers. I can't do this from the True cd because Macafee automatically deletes run.exe as it has a trojan. The router is a Billion Bipac 5200sr2. I went to Billion site and found a download but I can't install it (a ras file). I think it is an update.

Wonder if any of you guys can help out here. I can't set up DC++ without installing the router software, still trying to find other sites with this driver (minus the trojan)

Hopefully someone is running DC++ using true adsl and can advise

Thanks

I use tot and my own modem and router, but can't you just go to http://192.168.1.1/ log in with true:true or admin:admin and enable upnp?

Hi, Geronimo.

Although I don't know the router you have, I don't see why a router should have drivers for your OS.

Follow makloey link for any configuration settings (for connecting with TRUE), if you have not done so.

(edit): Richard-BKK quotes: When you use a router from True, they probably to surely not work in a multi connection configuration. What I know is that True disables most of the functions in the routers with uploading special modified firmware.

I always say not buy your router from True, they sell good equipment but change the firmware so that it works like 20% what it can do. The Billion BiPAC 5200SR2is one of the best routers I ever work with... end quote.

check the Billion site on flashing the router's firmware (be careful with that)

and goto Port Forwarding.com to setup your router and DC++ client. Don't forget to give your computer a static IP adress.

btw. routers normally don't show up in the device manager.

for more questions about DC++ PM me.
