Torrent Connection Problem

[klatuu]

Hello,

Not sure where to post this topic. I'm having problems connecting while using a torrent client (BitTornado). I used to never have problems, but then my computer crashed, and I had a new harddisk and system installed (XP, with SP2). I use a router (D-link, 624). I've tried enabling DMZ, port forwarding, and nothing seems to work. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks.

hi there

you have port forwarded to you ip address

are you sure you are port forwarding the right port

you should have no trouble as long as the ports are being forwarded

i will move this to the help section

this is where it should be OK

BTW

klatuu welcome to the forum

Yeah welcome man..

If you have tried placing the client computer into the dmz.. then the torrent file might be dead..  it happens..  Make sure that you have the correct address in the dmz..  start-run- type cmd- then type ipconfig ..  that will show you what your current ip address is.. make sure that it matches the one that is entered on to the router for the dmz..  If you can get that working then the next part is fairly easy..

that will give you a pretty good guide on how to configure the 624 to allow bittornado in.. also make sure that your firewall has the correct settings..
