,→Setting up: updating hub address; updating mac os x instructions
==Setting up==
Once you've downloaded your client, you need to set it up to connect to the Cal network. The basic settings are:
Hub address: caldchub.no-ip.combiz
Username: anything you want
Password: ''leave blank''
The last thing you need to do is add the hub to your "Favorite hubs" list. To do this, click on the Add new Favorite hub toolbar button and fill in the following info:
Name: Berkeley Hub
Address: caldchub.no-ip.combiz
Then, click OK, then click the CHECKBOX next to the Berkeley Hub.
*Close the Preferences window
*Click on '''Bookmarks''' in the '''Navigation''' pane
*Click '''New''' at the bottom of the window. Enter <code>caldchub.no-ip.combiz</code> as the address. '''Check''' the box next to the address you just filled in.
*It will take some time for Shakespeer to [[w:hash list|hash]] your files. You can check the progress at any time by going to '''Window'''→'''Show Server Messages'''; when hashing is done, '''finished hashing all files''' will be displayed there. Note that in order to connect to the Cal hub, you must have at least 1 GB of hashed files.
;If you're having trouble downloading files, chances are you have a firewall that is blocking the connection.
First off, head over to '''Shakespeer'''→'''Preferences...'''→'''Network''' and make sure that the '''Connection mode''' selected is ''Active mode''. Also check which port is being used by Shakespeer. Then,
*open ''System'' Preferences
*go to '''Sharing'''→'''Firewall'''
*click '''New...''', choose '''Other''' in the drop-down menu, enter the port number from Shakespeer's preferences (such as '''1416''' ) for ''both'' UDP and TCP ports, enter '''DC++''' (or whatever else you want) for the description, and click OK
*lastly, make sure there's a checkbox next to the newly-created rule
Restart Shakespeer, you should have no problems connecting now.
