    Default utorrent and port forwarding

    Trying to get port forwarding set up on my laptop for utorrent, because apparently it makes a difference to upload speeds? im having some probs and it keeps saying the port is closed. Followed all the instuctions, but maybe im doing something obvious wrong that you could help me with?

    It's not as hard as you think.

    with sky I used port 16870 and under firewall rules just added the pc IP address which was 192.168.0.12 and entered the port 16870.

    If you need help by teamviewer I can help you out if needed.
