So I think I've got it working. It seems a little slow, but that is probably to be expected with my connection. I think my problem may have had something to do with ShakesPeer (I'm running a Mac OS 10.8.5 -old version to keep compatibility with some of my old software-). I switched over to Eiskalt v2.2.3 and it seems to be working in active mode without doing any port forwarding. We'll see!

It's not something I know much about, but I use my phone as my modem for my laptop for all internet while I'm abroad. I set it up about 3 years ago, so I forget details, but I remember that some phones can do it better and some can't do it at all, depending on if the phone is 'open' for installing stuff not from the app store. I guess if you have aniphone it would be more difficult as they tend to be locked down too much for user interaction.

I spent some time yesterday trying to access the hub, but I'm currently limited to tethering/hotspotting from my phone for internet. Has anyone figured out port forwarding over a phone?
I have found some sort of conflicting info about it. I've read that you can't because most mobile networks have a kind of firewall on the entire network, but that you can usually pay extra to get a public ip, which would allow port forwarding. I also downloaded "fwd" port forwarder for Android, which can check if your ip is public, and it claims that mine is. But after trying every combo of settings I could think of, still no luck. Apparently this is an issue that gamers deal with and it sounds like at least some have had success.
I don't think using a hotspot to be a part of the hub is a good solution, but it would be a start for me. I'm hoping to move within a year, so if it's not possible (without paying a much larger phone bill) then I'm happy to hang out and chat till then!
