How to allow DreamTai access the internet through the firewall of your PC

 After you install DreamTai, and try to run it, it should download and display the stock charts with the latest data prices.


If DreamTai displays stock charts with  old data (few weeks old), it means that DreamTai can not access the internet to download the latest historical price data due to your firewall settings.

 Let us test for this.

Start DreamTai.
Go to the [Welcome] Tab in DreamTai (which is the first tab).
There will be a big picture of "DreamTai". Below it, there is a big button called "Check Internet Connection".

Please click on that button. If DreamTai can not connect to the internet, the button will turn red and will show messsage "Not Connected" next to the button otherwise, the button will be green colored and will say "Connected". next to the button.

If the button is red, it means is that your computer is not allowing DreamTai to access the internet.

It may be a firewall setting or some anti-virus software which is trying DreamTai to prevent accessing the internet.

Here is a youtube video showing how to allow an app through firewall.

In our case, we have to alow access to the following:two apps:

C:\DreamTai_50225\jre7\bin\java.exe and

C:\DreamTai_50225\jre7\bin\javaw.exe


After you have done the settings, please start DreamTai and check for internet connectivity by clicking the [Check Internet Connection] button.
It should turn green.
