Reason I'm asking is that years back when I used to use eMule more, it was almost no hassle to fix it. I just ran a connection wizard in eMule and it would configure UPnP for me and I'd instantly get HighID afterwards. Now, I have everything set as years ago, everything allowed, UPnP enabled and working, can't move stubborn eMule's rear off LowID. Even Wizard seems to be cut down and lacks the port configuring that it had years ago that configured the ports correctly. Current wizard just doesn't do anything. Why can every single torrent client just work without literally ANY hassle and eMule is still this clumsy stubborn thing to connect properly. I don't get it. Running it with LowID is basically worthless and getting it to acquire HighID is almost mission impossible. Why? Why can't it just be as simple as torrent apps?
I want to use it for really rare stuff that's not even on torrents, but it's so much hassle and so little effect when on LowID it seems like waste of time...

Why Is Fixing Lowid So Damn Difficult?

Hey RejZoR,
ISP's are using CGNAT much more than years ago and this blocks ports unfortunately. This might be your problem.
Torrent clients are using NAT Traversal to overcome this. Years ago, official eMule developers made a decision not to use NAT-T, because of some security concerns and also some burdens on e-servers/Kad buddies.
David Xanatos disagreed them and created two differend mods having NAT-T : 1- NeoMule (based on v0.49b) 2-Neo Reloaded (based on v.50a), this one is using an old Torrent NAT-T library. There is also another mod named IronMule based on Neo Reloaded. But on these mods, NAT-T can only be used when other clients are also using same mod. These mods are not being used widely, so will not help you today.
I read old messages on this forum about this subject and concluded that: Official developers (all retired) and community release developer fox88 (still active) hates about NAT-T and there will never be an official/community release having NAT-T.
If you can get out of CGNAT, try to do so. Some ISP's do this on customer's request without a charge, while some wants you to buy a fixed IP.
Lastly, you can use a VPN with port forwarding support. Even if you are behind a CGNAT, eMule can connect through a VPN tunnel and its open port, which will give you high id.
