• Answer:

  1) Open a web browser window and type your Default Gateway IP number in the address bar. It should be 192.168.1.1 in most cases. 2) To login leave username blank and type admin for the password (unless you have changed it before which is always advisable) 3) Find the section that says Port Range Forwarding or similar 4) Add in the port range 6881-6889 for Torrent files 5) Make sure you check both protocol boxes TCP and UDP as well as the Enable setting. 6) Have the forward address set as your internal IP address 192.168.1.72 in our case. To find yours Go to Start -> Run and type in cmd. This will open a DOS window. Type the command IPCONFIG and look for your �IP Address�. 7) Confirm and submit all the changes and that will probably work. If you�ve been through this share your experience here. If you have different routers or versions of Linksys and there�s something different let us know how to configure it.
