Well i have a Dynex DX-E401 router and i need to add a port for torrents. I have followed a tut for adding a port but when i click apply it says error on page and doesn't add the new port. I need help adding this port. _________________
Did you try reseting the router, unplug the power from it for a few mins then plug it back in or hold the reset button if it has one, i had that problem with a router i have and i reset it with the reset button and unplugging it and that worked for me.. also did u try this site?

That has nothing to do with port forwarding. If port forwarding wasn't set up, your router would even allow a connection. Torrents are notoriously slower then FTP or P2P. After awhile your speeds should start inreasing. Torrents work best if you start them at night before you go to bed. By morning, it should be through. _________________
Alot of times it takes about 30min for the torrent to reach top speed, it also depends on the number of seeds u have..if u are useing utorrent it has a thing in the options menu to test the port to see if its open.. _________________

are you sharing any files or only downloading from others?

What exactly are you trying to download? Maybe no one is seeding the file. _________________

Who is your ISP?
I have Rogers and I know for a fact that they are notorious for traffic shaping.
I am using utorrent with encryption enabled and it seems to work fine.
Perhaps this is your problem. _________________ Quick Impression for ya...Caw Caw....Bang!...F**k I'm Dead!
Yea, try going with utorrent works best for me, was using azureus but uses too many resources, and use encryption.. Works best that way for me.. _________________

Are you sure your portforwarding is set up correctly? Maybe you should go through and double check everything. _________________
