Bit Torrent through my Router

[Scouzer]

So this is how I have it setup:

I have port forwarding for TCP enabled to my IP for the following ports:

6881-6999
53026 (ABC says it needs this port?)
6969 (Tracker port?)

But my problem is that only ONE torrent seems to work at a time! What the heck am I doing wrong? All the others get "fail to connect to tracker" even though these are popular torrents!

I find i only need one port (6881) open for all torrents to work. It's probably a setting in your client, what are you using?

 

[Scouzer]

ABC

 

[Atheus]

never used it, but i know most clients have a setting like 'max simultanious downlaods'...

 

[Scouzer]

its set @ 10

🙁

I don't know what to say really. I used ABC with just TCP 6881-6999 open and it worked fine for as many files as I cared to download at once. I wasn't too satisfied with the speed and tried Azureus. This one just wants TCP 6881 and UDP 6881 open and I seem to get better results with it.

I say try another client before assuming it's a NAT error.

Azerus works fine. Weird.

I wonder what ABC's problem was.

Thanks guys.
