Static IP on your computer or no?

[death69inc]

well yes and no lol

on dsl so it is static till I reset my modem yes?

as far as my pc this one is 101 and the port number in utorrent is forwarded to this pc in router like i always did in xp ....hate new ready made pcs

[DreadWingKnight]

No, ignore your public IP.

Your computer's LAN IP is the one that I'm worried about.

That IP won't work with that router.

I have been there before this and is set up as it says to

the whole ip is 192.168.1.101 fig that was a known

if that is not what you mean I have no clue as that is what ipcoinfig gives me and that is what is shown at portforward.com to use

this pc is 101 other is 102 etc etc etc

[DreadWingKnight]

That IP address is NOT static, you have completely ignored the static IP step which is REQUIRED for that model router.

thanks for info it didnt work but i must go to work so ill try agian after

[DreadWingKnight]

Linksys routers have VERY specific IP address requirements

1> static IP on the computer

2> the static IP needs to be outside of the router's DHCP range

[death69inc]

on the static step at portfoward.com it searched for static ips after i entered info from my ipconfig and gave me a static range from --136 to 140 I used 137

entered all info as guide shows in network conection and in router still not working when I test in utorrent shrugs

haqsnt worked with this pc since I bought it even on the dlink router had same issue utorrent not connected I fig it was more a vista issue or norton than a router issue as my mirc ports forwarded just fine to 101 not sure why utorrent would not

either case I still ahve the nice big red ! on the bottom mayeb after I reboot it might help shrugs

[DreadWingKnight]

from --136 to 140 I used 137

Linksys router dhcp ranges default to .100-.149, this range will NOT work.

[death69inc]

tried 180 now still doesnt work

cant seem to fig out what is wrong

and I have done the static ip thing but still do not knwo why I had to go out of range when mirc seems to foward ports fine guess its a utorrent thing shrugs its out of range now still has not solved problem

would be nice to be connectable agian

still trying to fig it out hopes someone can help

problem with the big red ! not fixed but sites showing I am connectable at start then stopped short time later then after nortons firewall is colosed they stay open but still cant get the listening to work on utorrent at least the check for it
