Networking made easy - Part 2

Monday, July 12, 2004

Thought of sharing out what I did to make my BitTorrent downloads go faster (meaning no longer behind firewall!!), so this is step-by-step on how to do port forwarding using Aztech NA3000 4-port switch + router, and I'm using ZTE XDSL831 as my modem (not reset to router)....

First, I limit the ports in BitTorrent (btw, I'm using the BitTornado client - www.bittornado.com) to just 4 ports (initially to one port - 6881 - then I decided to make it 4, so I can open more than 1 torrent download).



Then, I login into the router's web management console, and go to the Port Forwarding configuration. I added the 4 ports, corresponding with the ports that I limit in BitTorrent.



Save settings, and the modem will reboot, and try opening any torrent downloads. You should get green icon now..



You can get more than that, this one becos I was too happy that I took this screenshot... once it goes up till 45kB/s!
