Files will be queued but won't download

Hello!

I'm using Sickbeard and Sabnzbd. Sickbeard will send the files I want to download to sabnzbd and it will receive them and queue them up, and find download locations, however I won't download.

Originally It didn't have permissions, and I've fixed that, however it still will not start downloading. I'm running it on FreeNAS and using Sickbeard to find TV shows, and send them to sabnzbd for downloading.

I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong, and honestly not sure what i'm doing at all. I've never really used any unix OS before.

Hopefully someone can help!

Do NZB file appear in SABnzbd's queue?
Do you get any warning messages?

Everything appears in the queue
No warning messages.

Everything just looks paused. The title of my tab even says paused, but they aint paused. I can pause them, and hit continue, but they don't do anything.

Do all NZB files have a block symbol in front?
They could be individually paused.
Check the Status->Connections page. Are any connections made?

No block symbol in front from what I can tell. They all say waiting though.

On connections, it has just one listed. https://www.nzbfinder.ws/
It says enabled and 0 connections. So.. maybe its not connected. I'm not sure. I do know when setting it up, I put all the info in for it, and if I hit test it would fail, but other programs have no issues, and are able to connect fine. I'm not sure how to fix that if that is the issue.

I also have a screenshot of my SABnzbd if needed.

That website isn't a Usenet Provider, it's just one to get NZBs. Here's a list of Usenet Providers:
