Issues with connecting

I started folding yesterday and everything worked fine, but today I havn't been able to connect to the server. 

When I start the F@H client it automatically starts using the CPU even though i'm not connected. The Web Control times out and refuses to work. I have re-installed the program and the problem is not solved. Restarting the computer didn't make any difference either. 

 

In the attached file you can see the advanced client which I have tried to change some settings without any progress. 

 

Do any of you know what the reason for this may be?

 

Thanks!

Maybe the windows firewall blocked the F@H client, take a look on this.

 

edit: In the SS it seems you didn't set up a identity, do that also. Pick a username (make sure that it isn't in already in use), set team to 223518 (LTT Team), and get a passkey. More info in stickies.

It is not the windows firewall. I did set up an identity yesterday, is there any way that can be done without the web client?

You can do it in the advanced client, but I don't know if you can do it without being connected. It'd be Configure>Identity.

 

Maybe it's some port within your modem that you'll need to open manually, but I won't be able to help you on this because my internet isn't helping  <_<.

I don't think it is avaiable when not being connected because I have just one tab under configure and that is connection.

I've tried port forwarding port 36330 through my router but nothing has changed. Maybe I should try an older client and see if it has the same issues.

Uninstall the client with revo, deleting all entries, re-downloading and re-installing. Maybe restart the pc, or running it as a admin.

One thing to note - if Folding has been stopped for some reason - you cannot restart it with the advanced client. I hate that. Try running the web client - that should restart it, or reboot. Had you tried either of those?

Yes I did try both of them, the web client timed out after the 30 second countdown and rebooting didn't help! I did try and configure remote access earlier if that had any thing to with the thing stopped working.

Remote Access - like RDP? That will kill it - the old client was a bit forgiving, but not the new one. You cannot RDC to a folding client. Haven't tried something like VNC or such...

There is a remote acces tab if you press configure in the advanced control, but it didn't seem to work.

Oh, yes, that. :)  For remote monitoring...
