Port forwarding issues |
Quote |
Been all over the help board and didn't find anything that'll help me on this.
Does anybody out there have any ideas on just how to properly forward a port for torrent use?
Tried the help on portforward.com (I think that's the site) but it didn't really help.
Using uTorrent on a Netopia 2247NWG.
I got a rocketpace rate (75.5kB/s) one day but it's yet to repeat itself, and I doubt it ever will.
Bye for now v

Google is your friend.
If you don't know what is what, drop by LAH's skype room and we can try solving it.

Thanks Sat, I'll give it a try. Hope fully this will sort it out, and if not, it'll confirm what I already know about various ISPs not liking torrents v

uTorrent has a test to see if the port is forwarded correctly, so just use that to test.

Results and the test prog |
Quote |
It's still saying "No Incoming Connections" but I'm at least getting a better Dl/Ul rate than I was. I've used the help on Netopia's support pages and it seems to have helped a little. I'm not getting NAT error messages anymore.
The speed of the transfer doesn't bother me anymore, but at least it's a little more stable than it was. Cheers, Sat
EDIT: The Port checker on Utorrent doesn't like me. It doesn't work sometimes and every port I've tried (which is a great many of them since, oh.... about an hour ago) returns an error. Maybe the ISP just doesn't like torrents...

If it returns an error, then it means the port isnt properly forwarded.
