FileTransferDeamon (FTD) working with USB 3G Modem

Post by vrep »

Hi,

Sorry if this question has been asked or answered before. As you can't search the forum on filetransferdeamon, I couldn't find anything related to my question.

Since I changed from using the LAN/WAN ports to connect to the internet to using a USB 3G Modem, the FTD doesn't seem to download anything anymore. (Not that you would like to download very big files anyway over a 2Mb/s connection, but you can download smaller files with torrent and it's intriguing me how this works.)

Is the FTD only working on the WAN/LAN ports? Can I change it to use ppp0 instead of eth0 and eth1? Or would it use any connection available? If so, what could then be the problem?

Hi,

Is it just FTD that isn't working? Can you for instance download a page using wget? Try log on to your bubba and issue

Code: Select all

wget www.google.com
You should get an index.html (or similar) file.
Have you tried downloading something else than a torrent with FTD (any valid address will do for testing)?
Is your routing correct (show the output of "route")?
