Default Help with port forwarding (torrent speed)

Okay, I have ports forwarded correctly and my firewall allows utorrent access to the net, yet when I test to see if my ports are forwarded correctly, it says they aren't... So I only get like 20kbp/s on torrent D/Ls.

I have a linksys WRT54G. I know its forwarded correctly because I double checked with portforward.com or whatever it is...

I'm using port 49645... does that affect it at all?

I have the same problem you do. I forwarded my ports too, but, like you my max download speed is 20kb/s.

I'm using Utorrent.

Yeah... typed in my IP. Went to the Applications & Gaming tab, filled in the info, checked enable, and hit save. And I know my IP is correct (ipconfig)

Heres a pic of my port forward settings.

I cant set em both to torrent... it says I cant have dupe names.

When I check to see if the port is forwarded properly I get this error...

Please see www.portforward.com for more information about how to map a port.

Please make absolutely sure that PeerGuardian2 or Protowall is allowing utorrent.com (72.20.34.145) in either of those programs. Those of you using ipfilter.dat should make sure the list does not include the website's IP. After making sure of this, re-run this test by refreshing the page (F5).
and why do u have 2 ports forwarded when it only uses one?

maybe you should try a usb connection. that always worked for me. oh and are you sure you have the correct ports set on utorrent? another thing that may be doing this is your service provider. some of them "blacklist" torrents.
