providers. You are charged a small commission when your PC is rented
out.

If the 'Windows Firewall Rules Set' light is the only red one (was for me) try the following:
1. Check that your AV is not interfering with the Slicify software. For
me F-Secure and Avast seem to be working fine with it. (If you need help
with this step just try Google or ask someone who knows the AV you're
using as I can't type out all the possible scenarios here)
2. Check if the light is still red, if yes continue.
3. Navigate to Windose Firewall through the control panel
4. Press "Allow a program or feature through Windows Firewall" or whatever it is in your language
5. Allow Slicify, if you can't find it press "Allow another program...",
find Slicify from there, add it and then allow it from the list
6. Open Windows Firewall (with Advanced Security) and navigate to inbound Inbound rules
7. Find the "Slicify Node Control Panel" rules and allow all
8. Restart Slicify and remember to run it as an administrator
9. The light should now be green and everything should be working
this a payment proof of one of its members to be fair
