Re: Firewall Question

To remove the firewall, you need to forward a port(s) on your router's firewall. Once you are not firewalled, you will get much better average download speeds because you will be able to connect to anybody, whether they are firewalled or not. Firewalled peers can only connect to non-firewalled peers. Plus you will be helping out those who are not able to poke a hole in their firewalls (at work or school or some newer condos) Go here for instructions on how to do it:
