Question about Bit Torrent & Port Forwarding on routers

--------------------------

If I have 3 PCs on one router and they all want to use Bit Torrent, how should I split up the ports in my router?

Right now I have the following:

PC 1 - 6881-6889 open
PC 2 - 6890-6999 open
PC 3 - ?

Reason I ask is b/c I'm using Shadow's Exp. Client and the default ports are from 6881-6999. Can I just make the 3rd PC use Ports 7000-7999 or something and then change the preferances on the 3rd PC to match 7000-7999?

Thanks for any help.
 
Just give each of them a block of ports within the 6881-6999 range.

PC1: 6881-6920
PC2: 6921-6960
PC3: 6961-6999

something like that.

Cool thanks. So I guess BT doesn't go outside of 6881-6999?
