Has anyone found a way to consistantly have FAH get new wu with NIS enabled. I have to disable it every time I finish a wu now and it is becoming very annoying. It won't stop me from folding or anything like that, but I don't want to have to keep monitoring FAH to see if it is just sitting idle or not. I have the cores and the .exe file with full access to the net and it still happens.
 
Configuring F@H to use IE settings have all 8 of my folding rigs consistently receiving/sending units. Be sure to re-initialize the clients after the re-config.

Goodluck!
 
yea nis doesn't give me a single problem with folding.... the first time a little warning came up but never again.
 
On my rigs, other than a one time prompt to allow FAH502-Console.exe, NIS2003 hasn't called for any special configuration for incoming/outgoing connections. May not be the same for all, but the resolution to my randomly inconsistent connection issues was solved by answering yes to "Use Internet Explorer Settings <no/yes>". All smooth sailing here now with no extra effort on my part. Before I did this, I also had to disable NIS til I sent/received, or rebooted.
