Help with Port Forwarding...
I just went through the instructions for Port Forwarding regarding the Belkin F5D5230-4. It doesn't seem like it did anything. Is there anything more I need to do? On EasyTree, I still have that annoying red number next to my name...

Re: Help with Port Forwarding...
Also, if it helps you in any way (like to check if it worked), I'm on a Nirvana video torrent here (12-13-1993). Maybe you could see if I'm firewalled that way...

Re: Help with Port Forwarding...
What BT client do you use undeath? and what kind of speeds do you typically get?

Re: Help with Port Forwarding...
I'm using the ABC client.
I think I typically get about 8-10K/s down on each torrent on average days. I'm getting varying speeds right now (anywhere from 2-8). And the higher speeds slow down as soon as they get there (which may be a result of someone capping their upload).

I'm getting DSL after I move to Norwich. I'm on Cable.

Re: Help with Port Forwarding...
Yeah, thats brutal undeath. I just looked at the torrent and there's 4 seeders and 17 leechers. If you're on dsl, you should definitely be getting better speeds than that.
I don't have abc, so hopefully someone with that client can help you. I use Bit Tornado and I had the same problem when I first started with BT. I opened the ports on my modem, but I was still firewalled. I didn't realize I had to open the ports on my BT client as well. As soon as I did that, I've been getting great speeds. I'm not sure if ABC works the same way, but you may want to check it out. No members have liked this post.

Re: Help with Port Forwarding...
Thanks. Maybe I'll consider switching to see if it works. I just hate uploading 2-3 times a 2+ gig torrent when my upload limit for a month is 10GB.

Re: Help with Port Forwarding...
Not to mention the time it must take to download a show, especially a dvd.
Let me know if you try out Bit Tornado and I'll guide you through the procedure. It's pretty easy though, I doubt you would need much help. Thats one thing I really like about Tornado. It's very user friendly. No members have liked this post.

Re: Help with Port Forwarding...
I should be able to figure it out. I just got it and installed. I'm opening it now.
Stay tuned... I don't understand too much when it comes to the specifics of this. I'm an old-school computer/registry guy...

Re: Help with Port Forwarding...
Yeah, I'm lost. I don't have a clue. I probably didn't even follow the instructions at that port forwarding website correctly...

Re: Help with Port Forwarding...
Open the Nirvana torrent with the Bit Tornado client. In the upper right hand corner, there should be 4 links. It should look like this......Details..Advanced...Prefs...About. Click on Prefs and it'll bring up a new screen. In the upper right hand corner of the new screen, it'll say "Port Range" and will have 2 boxes underneath it. Type in "6881" in the "from" box, and "6999" in the "to" box.
This will open ports 6881-6999 within the client. Let the torrent run for a bit. The light in the upper right hand corner should turn green. If it remains yellow, then you are still firewalled and the problem is with your modem/router. No members have liked this post.

Re: Help with Port Forwarding...
No dice. I must have done something wrong when I tried it for my router.

Re: Help with Port Forwarding...
I'm looking at my speeds right now, and it seems to be going faster (in ABC). Sometimes it hits 10, but mostly stays around 4-8. Faster than before, but I'm still firewalled...

Re: Help with Port Forwarding...
Yeah, with 4 seeds and a cable modem, you should be getting faster speeds than that. If the light remained yellow for a while, then you're definitely firewalled.
I wish I could help you with the router situation but I have no experience with one. Sorry man No members have liked this post.
