Many of us using Bittorrent clients for downloading torrent files from internet. For optimum speeds the software's like uTorrent must allow incoming connections to your computer. Port forwarding technique simply takes the data from the external ip address at a specified port to an internal ip address @ port. Here's how to setup port forwarding for Teracom T2-B-Gawv1.4U10Y-BI router provided by BSNL.
Before we can forward ports for bit-torrent, we have to set the port which it uses. Open uTorrent, click Preferences from Options. Click Connections on the left and checkout listening port. Choose a port between 10000 and 65500 since most ISP's will block ports in the 6000 range. click Apply after you're done.
Find your IP address.
- Click Start > type cmd, press enter, command prompt will appear.
- Type "ipconfig/all". You should find your IP address from there. It 'll be something like 192.168.1.x
