hi...Rajusaha, I dont have any answer for your question.But i have a question to u:huh:. i tried to port forward to torrent, but i failed:wall:.My torrent client is utorrent.

>i tried to create static IP address, but i failed there also:wall:I have BSNL 750 home plan, and my router(modem) is " PRONET - [FONT=&quot]PN-ADSL 101E/U"
i think when, i was creating the static IP address, preferred dns server and alternate dns server both were incorrect. i dont have any idea what shd i suppose to give there!!:@ and also

> when i created virtual server, it asked internal port start and port end, and external start port and end port:O:huh:. here also i dont have idea abt the Utorrent port number:wall:.

Hello nsdeepak,
For setting up static ip for your computer, you can go through this web page-
PortForward.com - Free Help Setting up Your Router or Firewall
You can also use OpenDNS which is safer and faster. Just put the following values in the Preferred and Alternate DNS field respectively.
208.67.222.222
208.67.220.220
For more details visit OpenDNS | Providing A Safer And Faster Internet and check whether you have set up your OpenDNS properly at welcome.opendns.com. You should see a Right mark if you have set your DNS properly.
For port forwarding you first need to go through the user manual of your modem. And also search Google for more help.
 
Hi ppl,

I m trying to port forward the utorrent, but i m failing every time. please help me out. :cry:

I setup a static ip address for my self. i googled a lot to find port forwarding, but i didnt get proper procedure to do. here are some detail n the way i tried,

>> my modem is " PRONET PN-ASDL 101E/U

>> i set my connection with a static IP. n the net is working properly.

>> i tried to port forward by selecting advance setup > NAT > Virtual server

>> in virtual server i clicked on add button.

from i here i need guide how to continue further,,,,,,,

i have a option called "select the service " - where i doesnt find any Utorrent.
so i selected the option " custom server " - typed there as 'Utorrent'

nxt at the bottom it ask for 'external port start' and 'external port end ' and 'protocol' and 'internal port start' and 'internal port end ' which i dont have any idea.

i tried in u torrent to find port number, in Utorrent ,in preference i got a random port number . which i tried n later tested for speed test in option....
and as usual i failed like every time.

even someone said that "close thread mods" does any one knows what does this means.

so please help me out ppl.:confused::(
