Hope this is the right place to post this ....

the control panel here shows "firewalled" for me. (it also shows that I have uploaded/shared 62.11 MB, which is from seeds I downloaded and kept active to try to have a good ratio.) I just can't figure out how to get port forwarding working correctly, even after looking at the stuff on PortForward.com. I'm hoping someone can help me out here.

I'm using uTorrent on a desktop PC running Windows 10. My router is a Netgear Orbi. uTorrent says the listening port is 18509.

I went to advanced set-up, port forwarding, added a record for port 18509 for service PPTP and with the internal IP address of my computer. (The orbi setup page specifies I should use the internal address.)

CanYouSeeMe.org still says connection refused and the control panel here still says firewalled.

I suspect that I've just missed something simple. Can someone please help?

thanks!
