Hello,

My soulseek program was working fine but i reinstalled due to not being able to see what files i was sharing when adding my own username and browsing my files.

I reinstalled and now when I run the two searches I mainly look for i get no results.

"dj numatic" and "paul.s"  I have not shared any of these files.

My ports are open correctly so I think I might be shadow banned.

I have tried two new accounts and a VPN from reading previous threads.

Do admins still use this?

I would like to know if i am banned and how can i be unbanned? I am not getting normal search results.

If you can log in you're not banned. If your listening port number is very high try changing it to something in the low thousands and restart the client.

My port was in the 50 thousands, now changed to 1000.

I am still not getting full searches so assumed i might be shadow banned.

I have reverted back to an older version ( 2024.2.1) and it is working fine now.
