<p>I would like to start a forum for Dtella help for macs because ive been searching for days and I usually find nothing, and when i do find anything its either unanswered help or only for like UC berkley dtella. Feel free to help answer, and pose other questions for dtella help FOR MACS ONLY. if ya got PC go cry somewhere else. Here is my help question.</p>
<p>Well recently my dtella and ShakeSpeer have acted weird and a few weeks ago things just went completely wrong and i cannot access dtella at all. Last semester i connected to dtella fine and everything was great. However ever since i came back from winter break things have been weird. the first time i tried to use ShakeSpeer,(DC++ for mac) it took a while to load and errors were popping up but i could connect and search for things but i couldn’t download. Next time i tried i couldn’t even search, and then on the third time i got some column error that wouldn’t even let me connect to dtella. After downloading it and installing it again I was able to attempt to connect to dtella however for the past 4 weeks this is what i get every time i attempt to connect to dtella

All my ports are forwarded properly, just like last semester when things were working, i thought since ShakesPeer wouldn’t load fully unless i clicked it a bunch of times was the problem so i downloaded the other client for macs Valknut. After setting that up i would get the exact same result, My IP address not being authorized. I haven’t changed routers and I am pretty sure my IP address is the same one I connected to dtella with last semester. Anyone got any ideas? Just some outside info, I am using dtella at Purdue, i sometimes use my friends wifi down the hall, and i did use my wifi at my house during winter break, don’t know if that’s important just putting it out there.</p>
