Sandy Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 (edited) Hey, Basically I have a yellow light on my Bitcomet(look at screenshot), I don't understand why it is a yellow light, and I know that my downloads aren't as quick as they should be. Basically How would I change it to a green light so I could have the best download speed possible? I am using Windows XP SP2 Firewall and Norton Antivirus, and have a Netgear WGT624 V3 router if that helps. I think it might be the router blocking it, but How would I change that if it even is that? Thank You In Advance (Y) Edited February 5, 2008 by Sandy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Intersect Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 well as you have already said you think it could be the router, read the manual and look up portforwarding, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandy Posted February 5, 2008 Author Share Posted February 5, 2008 I have looked it up and I've gone onto Port forwarding but I don't understand what your meant to put in service type, whether TCP/UDP or TCP or UDP and what the starting port or ending port should be? I think the I.P address that I put in, is the one in the corner in my first screenshot, think so anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timmmay Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 Service name - put in whatever you want as it's just a name to identify what it's for...I would call it something like "torrents". Service type - keep as TCP/UDP. Starting port - use the port number that bitcomet is configured to use Ending port - same as starting port (unless you want to use a range of ports) Server IP - the LAN IP address of your PC Once this is done you should get the green light.

Sandy Posted February 5, 2008 Author Share Posted February 5, 2008 Sorry if this seems a stupid question and I'm sure I knew how to do this before but where would I find the LAN I.P Address of my PC and/or my router? Thanks guys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sophism Posted June 21, 2009 Share Posted June 21, 2009 Hi , I currently face the same problem check my firewall and router modem . In fact completed the forward port but still the same anyone can please give advice or guidance ? What is the model number of your modem and router? You might be dealing with a double NAT.

jasonmym Posted June 22, 2009 Share Posted June 22, 2009 done , but still same Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sophism Posted June 23, 2009 Share Posted June 23, 2009 done , but still same Can you post a screenshot of the port forwarding page as you have it configured now? And I am correct in saying that your network setup is as follows? DSL Line -> This ADSL2+ 4 port router -> Your computer. Is that correct? Theres no other devices connected between the DSL line and your computer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sophism Posted June 23, 2009 Share Posted June 23, 2009 Assuming bitorrent is setup to use port 60000 then do you have any software firewalls running? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jasonmym Posted June 23, 2009 Share Posted June 23, 2009 normal window firewall ,but already allow bittorrent to access is bitcomet same as bittorent? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
»X« Posted June 23, 2009 Share Posted June 23, 2009 I had some teething problems, heres how I set mine up. I configure my computer for static IP. Then just set up the router to go with it. I only pick one port, in my case 49494, not a range. Also finally, if problems persists, switch to another client, utorrent perhaps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
