mr_dimsum Posted November 7, 2005 Posted November 7, 2005 after 4-5 years of having my dsl connected to my router, i've plugged my modem back into my computer just today, and did a port scan of general and commonly used ports and noticed ports 21, 23, 25, 79, 80, 110, 139, 143, and 443 are all secure and blocked.. i've had this problem since my new install on my new computer (running a sli-dr) and it's quite frustrating when even mozilla thunderbird won't connect.. >.< i've reformatted numerous times... is there anything i can do?? i have no idea why it's doing that.. i have no windows firewall or anything installed.. asides from mcafee, which didn't do anything like this before on my old comp.. >.< so my only conclusion is.. NAM. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
red930 Posted November 7, 2005 Posted November 7, 2005 Completely uninstall NAM. Many, many users have had difficulties with their firewall. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sharp Posted November 7, 2005 Posted November 7, 2005 Hello, Is the windows XP firewall turned off? # Install NAM again # Restart # Set the NAM firewall profile to off # Port scan # If ok # Uninstall NAM # Restart # Port scan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boppo Posted November 7, 2005 Posted November 7, 2005 Are you running a server of some sort? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr_dimsum Posted November 7, 2005 Posted November 7, 2005 No servings or anything.. As for NAM.. I turned off the profile and active armor was disabled.. Not working.. >.< Would clearing the CMOS and everything do the trick? But another worthy thing to note.. I'm using the Marvell..

mr_dimsum Posted November 7, 2005 Posted November 7, 2005 Has anybody experienced anything similar when they uninstalled it, and it was still giving probs? Could it be a problem with the hardware.. Or..? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharp Posted November 8, 2005 Posted November 8, 2005 But did you reinstall it and do what I said? Use these when you try again. http://www.nvidia.com/object/nforce_nf4_wi...2_amd_6.70.html # Install NAM again # Restart # Set the NAM firewall profile to off # Port scan # If ok # Uninstall NAM # Restart # Port scan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mekrel Posted November 8, 2005 Posted November 8, 2005 I would advise like others to not use NAM and to buy yourself a router with NAT. Also make sure you have entered your NVMAC code into your bios Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boppo Posted November 8, 2005 Posted November 8, 2005 Your PC should not respond to those ports unless you are running a server of the appropriate type. They are reserved for things like FTP, Telnet, http, etc. Your inability to connect has to be something else. Do you get an IP address?

Raphie Posted November 8, 2005 Posted November 8, 2005 I have had the same problem on the Marvel port, things work fine on the nvidia port, trwy switching network ports if it then works, it's clearly a setting that stayed behind after de-installing Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
