Azureus incoming TCP port??
Hi,
i don't know if this is the right place to post this question, so sorry if its not. Anyway, i'm confused. I'm trying to run the bit torrent client Azureus. I have a 'wireless highspeed internet' connection between my imac g5 and what i think is a router. (by router i mean this device that has two fat antennaes on it and i connect to it via the airport card inside my mac, i figure its a modem and a wireless signal creator all in one) I live in Paris and the phone, internet and cable tv are all from the same company, i sub let my appartment and the owner set all this up before i got here and thats why i'm rather clueless)
Everything is fine with my internet connection, really fast and reliable. But, as i said, i want to run Azureus. In the config wizard it asks me to provide an incoming TCP listen Port. It says that i can't use the port 6880 as its reservrd internally. Problem is i have no idea what port number to input, there is a test function, b ut any number i come up with results in 'NAT error'. So, does anyone know if there is a proper port number i can use?
I've got the firewall turned off, and i hope theres no prob with the 'router' (i heard that it can be a problem if u are connected to the internet from behind one)
I've read all the FAQ's of the Azureus app. but still am drawing a blank.
So, thats it, thats my problem, sorry its so long a question but thanks for taking the time to look at it. I will give a big fat 'Solved' to any one that helsp!
Many thanks,
Anthony
