Kim (and others), when you have problems with forwarding your ports, it helps if we know your OS (because XP has it's own built-in firewall), your router and/or modem type, and your bittorrent client (because bittornado actually defaults to a wide range of ports for use (I think it was bittornado)). Also, some types people are set up for DHCP, which basically gives a different local IP to the computers on your home network based on when they are turned on. These are all factors we need to take a look at.

Kim, what OS and what bittorrent client are you using? You said you already forwarded the ports, is that just in your router? Can you do an ipconfig and get us your local IP (it will look something like 192.168.1.xxx).

Spursfan, which linksys router do you have? Which tabs are available under advanced? And then, what OS and what bittorrent client?
