Emule Servers 2024: Best servers, how it works

One of the most fundamental characteristics of Internet users is the sharing of informationSince its inception, the network has been based on file sharing. Either directly as it would be in the case of a download, or by connecting to an IP address and that this allows you to load a website. For this reason, this time we will talk about the eMule servers of this year 2024, about which ones are the best and how they work.

eMule is one of the best peer-to-peer alternatives that has been best maintained over the years. This program was launched almost 20 years ago, coming to compete against large P2P software such as Ares, LimeWire and one of the first P2P applications such as eDonkey2000. The latter was paid and its downfall is one of the reasons why eMule began to gain popularity. 

Currently, despite the great competitions and countless alternatives for downloads, eMule is still a very favorable option. Both for those people who want to find files that are difficult to find on Google or those who want download movies, series, documentaries and much more.

In addition, eMule offers a reliability to users through advanced search options. It even has a file check feature, credit systems, and preview features.

For this and many more reasons, we want to talk to you about the operation of eMule servers, the best servers of this year and much more.

At first he will ask us choose a username, and configure some startup options for the application.

In the next step we must configure the connection ports. If you are not very knowledgeable about the subject you can simply give continue and continue with the other step. On the other hand, if you are interested in this configuration, eMule explains what each of the ports is for as follows:

Both ports, both the TCP As the UPD, they must be available and open to remote clients.

  • The TCP port It is what ensures the basic operation of eMule. Since TCP ports guarantee data transmission between computers.
  • The UDP port it works to be used by Kad. This allows you to prevent the network from being overloaded.

Then, we will have two options for configure download priorities and upload priorities. Check if you agree with the default settings and click next.

Here we will have a single setting regarding security and obfuscation. In the event that your ISP (Internet provider) is trying to limit the operation of eMule, the program will help you avoid any type of limitation.

In the last configuration we have to configure the networks that we want to use, in this case eD2k and Kad. By default these two are activated, you can choose whether to use one or the other. You can also enable safe mode for the eD2K network.

And ready! In this way we have finished with the configuration of the Configuration Wizard.

How to add an eMule server, each of the ways

The servers mentioned above are the best and most reliable that we can offer you. Each of them you can add them in eMule manually to start searching and downloading files.

To add a server manually to your eMule server list, you just have to: 

  • Open the eMule application and go to the servers tab. Here you will find everything related to the servers, the list, information and how to add them. 
  • In the block on the right you will have a section called "New server”, From here you can enter the IP, port and name of the server, the latter is optional.
  • Once the data is written, click Add to list. And you will see how the server is added in the server list.
  • You double click on the added server and it will start connecting. If you did not add a name to this server and it connects successfully, the name of the server will be automatically added by the default one.

It is also possible instead of adding servers one by one, add server lists via "server.met" using a URL. It is a faster way to add multiple servers with a single button. However, as in the previous case, it is recommended that you only add “server.met” files from trusted sources.

The Trusted and Community Verified Servants that you can get through "server.met" you can add them using the following URLs.

  1. http://sites.google.com/site/ircemulespanish/descargas-2/server.met
  1. http://emuling.gitlab.io/server.met

These servers, you can add them from the section "Update server.met from URL”Pasting the URL and clicking update.

Auto-update servers when starting eMule using server.met

If you want to optimize the eMule, you can make every time you start the application the servers are automatically updated from the URL of the server.met. This is very simple, you just have to follow the following steps:

  • Go to preferences and click on the tab "Servers"
  • Activate the option called “Auto-update server list on startup”And then click edit.
  • A notepad will open where you should add the URL of the server.met you want to add. You can use either of the two that we share with you and then save the open file in the notepad.
  • Later, you just have to apply the changes and every time you open eMule again the list of servers will be updated automatically.

This is very useful for keep your servers updated. As the "server.met" file is periodically updated, every time it is necessary the IP of the servers will be updated as soon as you start eMule.

Filter malicious server and client IPs

Through a file that we will share with you, you can configure eMule to filter a list of IPs that have been classified as possible threats. So if you are interested, you just have to follow these steps named below:

  • Once the eMule is open, go to the option of preferences.
  • Then find the tab for Security and we are going to activate the option "Filter servers”. The filtering level should be "<127", so if you have it like that, perfect. 
  • Next step, we must add the file with the list of IPs to be filtered. Where it says "Update from URL", we will paste any of the following links:
  1. http://sites.google.com/site/ircemulespanish/descargas-2/ipfilter.zip
  2. http://emuling.gitlab.io/ipfilter.zip
  • We click on Carry and voila, the filter will be working.

This filter was made by NoMiaus, from IRC Spanish. Its last update was made this year, so it is still valid. 

Conclusion about eMule 2024 servers

Without a doubt eMule is an interesting option to download files since it allows us to navigate and find files in a totally free way, without having to use intermediary web pages with annoying advertisements. However, despite eMule's attempt to make its searches secure, we must be careful with the files that we download to our computer.

This is one of those applications that even though the years have passed, and everything has changed, continues to maintain a fairly loyal community and it can continue to be used without any problem. So we can hope that although its popularity is no longer the same for years, we believe that applications like this will continue to last over time.
