Ultima Posted November 28, 2008 Report Share Posted November 28, 2008 Uh, if you're asking how you'd forward your port, do check the setup guide regarding NAT issues. You don't find a port -- you pick one and forward it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ultima Posted November 29, 2008 Report Share Posted November 29, 2008 Ouch, I keep forgetting to check whether I'm posting in the Mac or Windows subforum. Bread crumb links aren't helping D:Either way, though, you select a port in the preferences, and the rest of the instructions in the setup guide regarding the router/modem should be relevant (http://www.portforward.com/english/applications/port_forwarding/Utor/Utorindex.htm).You'll need to find your router there.

NoOneButMe Posted November 29, 2008 Report Share Posted November 29, 2008 Open Network Utility (in /Applications/Utilities). It should say "IP Address(es): " followed by your IP Address. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thelittlefire Posted November 29, 2008 Report Share Posted November 29, 2008 You're not getting it. You CHOOSE the port to use forwarding, either manually, mapping the one PORT to your IP from the router... or you let the program choose by enabling UPnP/NAT-PMP on your router, and enable it in the client.Do you know what router you're using?

NoOneButMe Posted November 29, 2008 Report Share Posted November 29, 2008 Pick a number between 1 and 65536. Whatever that number is, thats a good port to use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
