strange port forwarding issue

[seasloth]

so I followed the instructions to forward a port, which had worked fine before I recently reformatted. afterwards download speeds increase slightly and it will say the port is forwarded but shortly after if I check it it says the port is no longer forwarded. anyone have a similar issue? I can't even get over 100kbs for all the files im downloading combined!

Try getting rid of Apple's Bonjour "zero configuration" service O10 - Unknown file in Winsock LSP: c:\program files\bonjour\mdnsnsp.dll is the entry it makes to "help" redirect your requests including its server or whatever in the chain of trust. To verify whether or not your ISP allows you to use your full download bandwidth for bittorrent traffic, use the test torrent swarms listed in the setup guide / and look through the How-To. If you think you should be getting higher speeds, also posting your speed test results or a picture to said results would help.

As I've stated before, Bonjour does not screw things up.

[Switeck]

And as I've read in multiple places, at least certain versions of Apple's Bonjour can cause 100% cpu usage and possible bandwidth issues.
