slow speeds after doing several tweeks with utorrent

[holysmoke]

I have the red exclamation in status bar says not connectable

I have set upload speed to 80% of capacity.

I unchecked upnp port mapping

I went to portforward and did everything they said for my router netgear WGR614v6

I made a static ip, did port forwarding in router.

port checker from the Speed Guide writes Welcome to the µTorrent Port Checker.

A test will be performed on your computer to check if the specified port is opened.

Checking port 23053 on 71.54.28.26...

Error! Port 23053 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 (72.20.34.145) 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).

Speed Guide shows my settings to be upload 35 kB/sec, upload slots 4, connections per torrent 50, connections global 200, max active torrents 8, max active downloads 5, current port 23053
