Hello, im relatively knew to the world of Torrents and their clients. Im also new the networking for that matter
. I have a slight problem with my comptuer configuration.
I have to computers, a HOST and a CLIENT. The HOST machine is connected to the internet via a broadband modem (motorola Surfboard). Host machine has XP SP2 and the CLIENT has Xp SP1. I finally managed to get ICS working on the CLIENT machine without zonealarm blocking the connection for some reason (I had to create a static IP address for the CLIENT machine and add it to the trusted zone of the HOST machine, read up on that on the Forum on Zonelabs main page..."Victory, ICS working with ZA6 on Host" is was called)
Anyway, thats my computer setup. I installed Bit Tornado on the CLIENT machine, and it ran really really really , NOT good. I was getting download speeds of 0-3kb (3 on a lucky day), and upload speeds of 7-13kb(......all the time). I ran the test posted on this forum, the one which takes the port of Bit Tornado, and the hash code. It failed need less to say. I realised that my HOST had a problem of not forwarding ports (I think thats that the correct lingo). So, erm, HELP!!
Could anyway please tell me how to configure ZA6 on the HOST machine so that it will forward the ports used by Bit tornado, and on the Client machine so that it will accept the connections (althought I dont think the latter is nessecary, since Ive given it full access on the CLIENT machine). Thank you in advance.
