No users in the user list doesn't sound like the behaviour of unopen ports. Sounds like you can't provide a decent connection between you and the hub, often seen this when an ISP imposes traffic shaping, or your ISP is being a general pain.

Have you changed anything on your setup since this error occuring? Have you checked into your ISP?

Oh, and do you experience the same behaviour in many hubs, or have you just tried it on one hub?

Come to think of it this could be occuring for a number of reasons so it's best to provide more information. What version of DC++ are you using? What is the hubsoft/error message you receive when trying to connect to the hub? Maybe it's because you're using an old version of DC++ and trying to connect to an ADC hub.

Best thing to do is to google your isp name along with 'traffic shaping' or 'dc++ problems' to see if anyone else on tiscali is experiencing the same behaviour. I'll provide more assistance tomorrow since I'm really tired tonight, hopefully some more people in the know will help too. I managed to find this with a quick google: http://www.techsupportforum.com/networking-forum/networking-support/213113-isp-problems-namely-tiscali.html
