CNet CWA-854 Wireless-G & Port Forwarding

RobertFoster

I recently got a CNet Wireless-G Router and I'm having a bit of trouble with Port Forwarding.

I've googled, searched here and portforward.com, but nothings came up.

I set up the BT standard issue Zyxel as a bridge. I also tried setting the ports in the "Advanced > Special Apps" section - but I'm still getting NAT errors in Azureus. There are other settings on that page that are required (see attaced image), but I'm not sure what they should be for BitTorrent...

Anyone have any ideas what they should be?

Should this be in another forum?

You know to forward ports 6881-6889 right? Here's a small diagram to explain why;

Even if I use different ports for bit-torrent?

(and I tried to set up 6881-6889 using the above method, changed the port in Azureus, still getting a NAT error.)

i use 60000 coz some trackers block the default ports this is why you sometimes get 6881 is blacklisted so just forward the wierdest port possible and forward it
i got 210KB/s on bittorrent after

For some reason with this router I havent had to forward any ports. Using BitComet here btw.
