since you use a linksys router.. heres what you do.

In your browser type in the following: 192.168.1.1, and hit enter.
When the prompt comes up click on the password box and type admin.

This will take you do the linksys router page. Click on the orage button that says Advanced. Next click on forwarding.

Where it says Ext.Port, type in 6881 in the first box, 6889 in the second. Check the box that says Protocol TCP. Next, enter the last three digits to your ip the router gave you.

You can check this by going to Start-->Control Panel-->Network Connections-->Double-Click Local Area Connections-->Support. Where it says IP address, remember the last 3 digits, and enter them into the linksys page. After you enter the digits, click the box that says Enable, and hit the apply button.

Also, the speed of the torrent depends on how many seeds there are, and what kind of connnection those seeds may have.

I was wonderin the same fuckin thing,so I called linksys and the lady told me that you don't need a user name,just type ADMIN in the password box and hit ok.Then you can do all the shit hobgoblin said to do.

Yes sir...

 

[BaneTheTerrible]

there are generic password resets for these. my question is if you have more then one pc should you set the ones you arent downloading on to different ports because i cant even use the internet on my other pc's when im downloading.

 

[hobgoblin]

It wont matter. It shares the connection when yoour using a router.

Jae, I dont know why it wont let you into the page.

Dont worry...story of my life dude...nothin ever works out for me,im used to it...

@jae

go to google and type in your router name and model and type in admin password next to it or something like that, and eventually you will find out what your default admin pass is, that is what i had to do with mine because i couldnt remember the pass.
