Re: Yellow Lights! Arrrgh!
first. pick ONE port for your torrent client. (open the program and set the port yourself)
50100 would be a solid choice (unused by other programs)
.. next step ..
you need to know and set the IP address of your computer.
set it to something like
192.168.1.50 (IP)
255.255.255.0 (subnet mask)
192.168.1.1 (gateway - linksys default setting)
now go into your router via a web browser.
Select applications and games (port forwarding).
Open port 50100 (both TCP/UDP is fine) to 192.168.1.50
done.
* this is an example - yes it should/will work of you have the default settings in your Linksys router.
WRITE DOWN CHANGES BEFORE YOU MAKE THEM - its just the right thing to do.
