Hindsight Posted August 28, 2008 Report Share Posted August 28, 2008 I have followed the port forwarding guide properly, but yet continue to have recieve the "Your port is not forwarded" in uTorrent's port tester thing. I have protocol encryption enabled, I've followed suggested uTorrent settings based on my connection, blah blah. I've looked through a lot of guides and whatnot, but no matter the changes, the port refuses to forward >:I use:uTorrent 1.8 (build 11813)Eset 3.0.657.0 antivirus, no firewall programs active aside from windows firewall, which has uTorrent under exceptionsWRT150N Linksys routerRogers CableMy speeds are in the low 20s area for non-heavily seeded torrents, and the number of connected seeds/peers usually is close to none. Whereas for really active torrents (which I seldom use), I can climb up to the 600s and average around 350, regardless of my pathetic number of connections. I really don't know what to do anymore *_* I'd really appreciate some help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreadWingKnight Posted August 28, 2008 Report Share Posted August 28, 2008 What static IP did you set on your computer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hindsight Posted August 28, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2008 192.168.1.100 is what it told me when I ran the command ipconfig/all, but the IP that it displays on other sources says something along the lines of 99.230.141.123. But since the router only allows you to insert 3 numbers into the end of 192.168.1.xxx when single port forwarding, I opted for the former result.

DreadWingKnight Posted August 28, 2008 Report Share Posted August 28, 2008 Linksys routers need you to set up a static IP on your computer, and they are EXTREMELY particular about HOW you set it up.Having an IP of .100 tells me that you either didn't set up a static IP at all, or you didn't set it up right for the linksys router.

Hindsight Posted August 28, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2008 Okay, I redid it and now I have a static IP of .138, and made sure I did it right =\ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreadWingKnight Posted August 28, 2008 Report Share Posted August 28, 2008 .100-.150 is in a bad range because that's the DHCP range of Linksys routers.Try .38 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hindsight Posted August 28, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2008 Didn't change a thing ;( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTHK Posted August 28, 2008 Report Share Posted August 28, 2008 Go to the status page of the router, what's the first half of you IP address for the Internet? And try .160 (and/or find the DHCP settings, make note of number of clients and starting address). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hindsight Posted August 28, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2008 Internet IP Address: 192.168.0.xAnd the default DHCP server range is .100 -> .150 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTHK Posted August 28, 2008 Report Share Posted August 28, 2008 Bah, your modem or whatever is also a router and needs port forwarding, use the gateway address on the same page to try to connect to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hindsight Posted August 31, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 31, 2008 Forgot I even had a cable modem *_* But as far as I know, there are no configurations to port forward it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
