UTorrent (Port Fowarding).
« on: January 22, 2007, 07:39:13 PM »
Hello everyone,

Recently i downloaded UTorrent. I relised i need to open my ports (because i have a router).

To do this i was going to need some help. So i searched it in google and found a site that guides you throught it.

http://paperkingdoms.wordpress.com/2006/08/22/utorrent-speed-problems

So i followed the steps carfully. and i was sure i had done EVERYTHING right, but when i open Utorrent it says my ports are still not open.

So i went back to the site and did the whole process again to make sure i didnt make any mistakes. and utorrent is still saying my ports are NOT open.

I dont know what els to do. Can anyone help me or direct me to the solution? Thankyou.

Ok so i went to your link and went to"add port Manually"

so i followed the instruction and added a new port using the firewall.  I used the  port number 59944 (which i got from Utorrent).

Then i checked the box and applied the settings but nothing has changed?
