New network lock breaks port forwarding

[objective 0]

The new cliant that has the new method of network lock breaks port forwarding with my torrent cliant. switching to windows firewall method fixes the problem.

 

why does the new network lock break portfowarding?

Hello,

 

new WFP based Network Lock does not "break port forwarding". It just sets WFP rules without touching the Windows Firewall. If you set Network Lock to work with Windows Firewall, Windows Firewall rules will be modified. Therefore, if you have Windows Firewall rules blocking incoming packets to the torrent client, Network Lock based on WFP will not modify them, obviously.

 

Kind regards
