Low ID on Emule





It might happen that while using Emule you receive a Low ID error message. This means one of the ports used by Emule is blocked and cannot be reached. A few reasons for this might be because you are behind a router, because of your firewall settings or because of some proxy servers. You must also check that the correct routers are open for Emule.

Emule makes use of three distinct ports:
  • 4662 (TCP)
  • 4672 (UDP)
  • 4711 (TCP)

How to prevent getting LowID?


You should first open additional TCP ports between 4661 and 4665 and reduce the number of connections in Emule. Also try to get an alternative TCP Clientport 4662.

  • 1. In your web browser, go to your “Internet Options”. Where requested to enter the IP address of your router, type in 192.168.0.1 and the administrator’s username. Leave the password field blank.
  • 2. Select your “Advanced” option and choose “Virtual Server”.
  • 3. Check the “Enable” option to create a new entry and type in “emule1”.
  • 4. Enter your IP number and choose TCP for the Protocol Type.
  • 5. In “Private Port” and “Public Port”, type in 4662 and select the “Always” option
  • 6. When done, click “Apply”
  • 7. Select your internet options again and this time in your “Virtual Server”, label it as “emule2” and choose UDP as Protocol Type.
  • 8. In “Private Port” and “Public Port”, type in 4672 and select the “Always” option. Click “Apply” when done.
  • 9. Select your internet options again and this time in your “Virtual Server”, label it as “emule3” and choose TCP *as Protocol Type.
  • 10. In “Private Port” and “Public Port”, type in 4711 and select the “Always” option. Click “Apply” when done.

For those using DI-704P (rev.B) and DI-707P:
