hey guys, long time no see. im setting up the newest version of emule (0.48a) on a new pc, at a new location. ive set everything up the same way i always have, and there are no active/enabled firewalls that i am aware of. yet, when i try to connect to kad, it just sits there with the status saying "connecting".. heres a play by play:

1. setup emule

2. setup internet gateway (upnp)
Image

3. setup router (forward ports)
Image

4. test ports
Image

5. try to connect, doesnt look normal
Image

6. status is stuck at "connecting", never changes
Image

any ideas?

You can't connect to Kad from a clean install of mule AFAIK as it needs the nodes.dat file populating. You could try searching for the file online but the easiest way would be to connect to a donkey server until Kad connects, then you can disconnect from the server as it automatically populates the file once it has a connection.

It's so long since i did it from a clean install, haven't you got to bootstrap a connection to kad, or something?
