Portforwarding issue

[no leaf clover]

I discovered that I have closed/blocked ports on my router.

I have tried to open them but every try has failed.

I have a Thomson Speedtouch ST780WL router/modem and I have followed the steps listed on http://portforward.com/english/routers/ ... rindex.htm for BitTorrent (my torrent program) everything goes well until the final step "Adding a new application"
Then I get an error message.

I've done some research and found some people who experienced portforwarding issues with this router. Anyone knows how to help me?

mmmm I usually fixed every problem I had about Portforwarding.
Your link gave an error, it doesn't exist:S

Btw did you try to maybe custom an existing program setting on it, without make a new rule?

Hey Sepu,

Thanks for taking the time to reply.

This is the link for BitTorrent: http://portforward.com/english/routers/ ... orrent.htm
I think the guide is obsolete because I use BitTorrent 7.6 and it doesn't look like the version shown in the guide.

I also installed uTorrent because that guide is accurate: http://portforward.com/english/routers/ ... orrent.htm

I follow every step but I keep failing at the 2nd last screenshot of both guides.

i used utorrent for along time before my seedbox.
as for your issues the only thing i can suggest with you torrent in your settings there will be a port number option.
edit the number if any that is already there and add your own random number and save.

then just add that number you made up in the portforward section.
it might not be allowing you to use the port you have entered because it might be blocked.

worth a try

I think I did it. Thanks for all the replies.

so it's working now?

Yes, I think so. Until yesterday I couldn't see Jorg in BitTorrent and now I do so I guess it works.
