*** *** question

I cant unblock a port!!!

I am trying to get azureus to run smoothly but I just cant open a port for it, all fails!!

I am using port 5881 atm, UDP and TCP

I unlocked both in firewall and router ( in router settings I go to services and do it there, right?)


it says:

Quote:
Testing port 5881 ...
NAT Error - Connect attempt to 195.47.98.20:5881 (your computer) timed out after 20 seconds. This means your port is probably closed.

In router you log in to your router using telnet or http and change it. Also, I recommend changing the text of your post or I will delete this thread due to language violation.

i would recommend changing the port you are using to something within the range of 49152–65535 as these ports are not pre-assigned to any application or service, these are private ports and you can do what you wish with them.
