Summary0000736: ID isn't computed correctly -
Description - or at least it could be improved.

Hi
this is an odd problem but I think it's worth mentioning.

My Ip is 82.83.41.0
It seems strange that I've hot a 0 as last number but thats the way it is. Sure enough amule gives me a lowID, since it calculates 0 * 2^24=0. So the highest ID I can get is 16777215, which is 2 below the smallest HighID(16777217).
But all the ports are reachable, so really I should get a highID.
So I propose, amule should check whether any part of the ip-adress is zero, an then treat it as one(1).
Thanks for reading
Sebastian

The server could always be busy or have a limit to high id so it's given you an lowid

I tried about 15 or 20 different servers over several hours. All gave me a lowID. I tried to the "port-is-reachable"-tool and it said everything was fine.
Then I reset my internet connection, got a different ip (without a 0), and got a highID.

IIRC, this is a design issue with the ed2k network. Besides, it's not aMule that decides your ID, that's up to the server.

Read some docs on ed2k protocol. 0-ended ips get ALWAYS a lowid, and you can blame edonkey for doing it that way in the first place.

Kad network fixes that issue, and you would have a proper id there. But it can't be fixed on ed2k.

If you send your id ended in .1, you will never get any packet - it's not your ip
