Port 32459 does not appear to be open.Please see www.portforward.com for more information about how to map a port.Please make absolutely sure that PeerGuardian2 or Protowall is allowing utorrent.com (208.99.198.134) in either of those programs. Those of you using ipfilter.dat should make sure the list does not include the website's IP. After making sure of this, re-run this test by refreshing the page (F5).

DreadWingKnight Posted July 27, 2006 Report Share Posted July 27, 2006 Have you static IP'd your computer properly for your router?Most require the static IP of your computer be inside the same 192.168.x subnet, but outside of the router's DHCP range.

perrymanku Posted July 27, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 27, 2006 how do i do this, in the properties of the connection. it has the option obtain an ip address automatically ticked and obtain dns server address automatically ticked. have looked on portforward and it says if this is the default leave it as is.
