okies everybody i made this tutorial cos everybody wants to know an easy and best way to port forward utorrent. so this is it. this works for any modem as long as you know how to get to ur main settings for ur modem like i do in which im going to show u all.

i must warn u that u shud open Utorrent and go to
options-> preferences-> connection



and in connection on the right hand side untick the LITTLE box which says RANDOMIZE PORT EACH TIME UTORRENT STARTS [if ticked].
Like The Way I Have Unticked It From The Rest.



If u Dont Know Ur IP address then go to Start-> Run
In Run, Type-> cmd
In cmd window, type-> ipconfig/all

Look For Ur IP Address. and Note It Down First.





Above is the adress for my modem main settings. This is step 1 the most essential part which u need to know for ur modem.


Step 2 is when it asks u for username and password and if ur username is admin, and password is admin, then type accordingly...

next when u enter the page select Advanced Setup.

Under Advanced Setup, select NAT, Under NAT, select DMZ Host

In DMZ Host Type Ur IP Address and click "save/apply"




Once u have clicked save/apply then click on Management

Under Management Click on Save/Reboot

Follow The Image Below




And Now All Ur Ports Are Forwarded... But Thats Not The End!


ClICK ON PART 2...

Next U Have To go to Start-> Control Panel...



In Control Panel U Have to open Windows Firewall...

Then U Have to Click on Exepctions Tab in Windows Firewall



In Exceptions Tab, click on Add Port and u shall see a window like the one Below.




now u may enter the name and port as i have done or u may assign a different name and port for utorrent.

Once u r done entering the name and the port, click ok and then again click ok to close the Windows Firewall Exceptions Tab and Window.

NOW U HAVE TO SET THE EXACT SAME PORT FOR UTORRENT...

Open UTORRENT and click OPTIONS on top, In OPTIONS select SPEED GUIDE and this is what u shud be seeing...



Now next to Current Port, type the same Port Number which u typed in the Windows Firewall Exceptions Tab where u Added A Port.

Do It Like The Way I Did... and then click on Test if port is forwarded properly

It Will Then take u to the internet browser window to see if the port is forwarded correctly.

if it has been forwarded properly [And anyways It Shud]

Then It Will show u a green patch across the port number.

Once that is done then In SPEED GUIDE window u can click on USE SELECTED SETTINGS.

AND VOILA U R DONE ONCE U RESTART UTORRENT.

and u will know this when u look at the bottom portion of utorrent... u will notice a green circle with a white tick inside it.

that means all connections are perfect.

ENJOY!!

just buy a netgear modem to open ur ports,,, the router must have only one ethernet port,,,, i guarantee it will work,,, this is the purest port forwarding method




coz bloddy bsnl modems nd routers stinks,,,

detone

players_player

theres no need to be sorry bro. i wasnt offended by anything u said. i understood that u may have had a problem with using their equipment in the past and so thats y u said their modems stink.

CHEERS UP!!

snmech

hi
if the ports r to be opened is der any draw back to this method???

detone

never dude,, wats the drawback?? r u using a server or wat? to keep ur files securely?

superprash2003

whenever you open a port make sure some service is using it.. unnecessarily having ports open is dangerous!!

saesms

Test the connection to your Internet service provider Test PPP server connection: PASS

Test the assigned IP address: FAIL
Ping default gateway: FAIL
