Title: All official Windows clients of ProtoShares missed UPNP support
Post by: testz on January 16, 2014, 09:27:19 pm: I investigate most common problem of ProtoShares "No block source available" and found what 0.2.0 and 0.4.0 ProtoShares clients for Windows compiled without UPNP support.

I think it's a main source of the problem as least for Windows version of the client.

ProtoShares client with TestNet support has UPNP enabled: https://bitsharestalk.org/index.php?topic=2390.0

Download link: https://www.dropbox.com/s/dt9m8x98z5jfgji/protoshares-0.4.0-testnet.zip
MD5 of zip is 82f62d45657a352daa6147bc0eaddd7b

I will be glad if community will check my suspicions and post feedback here.
