Rep Power: 2 | Hi, I have the WA3002G4 router from BSNL and wanted to port forward (port 59038) to speed up uTorrent client. This is what i have done - Logged into the router and made a note of the DNS IP address (192.168.1.1 ->Device Info ) Primary DNS Server: 214.48.240.81 Secondary DNS Server: 214.48.240.90 - Changed the DHCP range in the router Start IP Address: 192.168.1.2 End IP Address: 192.168.1.200 Subnet Mask: 192.168.1.0 - Have assigned a static IP to my laptop(Control Panel -> Network Connections -> Local Area Connection -> TCP/IP properties ) IP: 192.168.1.250 Default Gateway: 192.168.1.1 Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0 Preferred DNS server: 214.48.240.81 Alternate DNS server: 214.48.240.90 - I then logged into the router again (192.168.1.1 -> Advanced Setup -> NAT) - Here I created a new entry (as given in portforward.com website for this router model and for uTorrent Client) Server Name : Utor1 External Port Start : 59038 External Port End : 59038 Protocol : TCP/UDP Internal Port Start : 59038 Internal Port End : 59038 Server IP Address : 192.168.1.250 - I saved the changes and rebooted the router Now when I click on the "Test if port is forwarded properly" in uTorrent Client (Options -> Speed Guide) I got the following error Welcome to the µTorrent Port Checker. A test will be performed on your computer to check if the specified port is opened. Checking port 59038 on 59.96.36.200... Error! Port 59038 does not appear to be open. Please see PortForward.com - Free Help Setting up Your Router or Firewall[/url] for more information about how to map a port. Please make absolutely sure that PeerGuardian2 or Protowall is allowing utorrent.com (72.20.34.145) in either of those programs. Those of you using ipfilter.dat should make sure the list does not include the website's IP. After making sure of this, re-run this test by refreshing the page (F5). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- I am also not behind any firewall. What am I missing in this case? -Sirish |

Rep Power: 2 | Hi, I am not behind a firewall. I checked Control Panel -> Windows firewall and got the message that the service is not running. Could it because this is my office laptop as well, and the IT guys have enforced some other rules to block port forwarding? - Sirish |

Rep Power: 2 | Hmm...I was thinking on the same lines as well. My home PC has some issue with the SMPS. Will get that fixed in a couple of days and then ping back with the results from the other PC Any more suggestions to try out until then are welcome. Thanks -Sirish |

Rep Power: 12 | @sagar1234 GLB-802C port forwarding Post screen shot of Device status page, showing the menu selections , to compare with similar Routers , so that user/s can guide you. This modem seems to be latest only for Indian Market and being sold since Aug 2008. No guide/s available in Linksys Website.( other than product specifications ).

Rep Power: 12 | One suggestion which seemed to have worked : I have not tried it. connect the RJ45 from modem to LAN port of Wifi router, instead of WAN port.Enter PF details in either one or both. |

Port forwading is almost same in all routers. Either use "Virtual Server" otion (if available) or use "NAT/DMZ" option. | |
