Rep Power: 2 | Hello everyone I'm having BSNL broadband 500c plan with UT300R2U modem.I'm a regular user of Utorrent and so to boost my download speed i tried portforwarding. I changed my modem/router settings to bridge type connection instead of using the DMZ way.But after a couple of weeks or so i couldn't connect to the internet. Was getting error message as "Remote computer failed to respond". Fortunately i had backed up my original settings and now updated to its default type (always On PPPOE). But now my download speed in torrent files is Just 15 - 20 Kbytes/sec.(For good health torrents) I'm getting the red exclamation mark at the bottom saying a router/firewall is blocking the connection. I added exception to XP firewall, so it must be the Router thats blocking the connection. I just want to know if there is any other way other than the above methods of portforwarding to improve my download speed Thanks in advance |

Rep Power: 1 | I think bridge mode is best, because you don't have to worry about port forwarding & DMZ etc. & you can control your usage by just dialing, In PPPoE mode you can't say surely after switching off PC it wont use your internet. |

Rep Power: 2 | yep...if u have a good firewall (like comodo) you can change to bridge mode.. u dont have to manually portforward and also scheduling connection for night UL downloads will become very easy.. |
