Recently, a friend had me start using utorrent. I am new to torrent files and realized I couldnt have set it up right when only 1 out of every 15 would download. When I clicked to see if it was "forwarded" correctly it told me it wasnt. I have a Belkin Pre-N router and I have found a web site that tells me where I need to go to change my forwarded port. It is the "Virtual Servers" tab of my Belkin set-up page. I also have the port # UTorrent is giving me. The problem, I dont know what to type in! If anyone has a clue about what Im talking about please help...
 
well, you will need your internal IP address aswell, to get this go to START - RUN - type 'cmd - hit ENTER - type 'ipconfig /all'...... where it says IP ADDRESS, that is you internal IP address.

In your router, it will want toknow if it is a UDP port or a TCP/IP port, you want to select TCP/IP, it will want the port number or port rango, enter the port that you want forwarded, then enter you IP address (internal) when it asks for it, that should be it.

I am unfamiliar with belkin routers, but what i said above is a standard procedure.
