Free Port Forwarding Guides & PFConfig: Forward Your Ports Automatically
Port Forwarding BitTornado on the ADDON ARM8200
Since you are reading this guide, I'm going to assume that you have Bit Tornado installed. Open up Bit Tornado.
Close to the top you will see a Prefs link. Go ahead and click that link now.
The Port Range box defines the ports that Bit Tornado will use. These are the ports that you need to forward to your computer. Bit Tornado does not need the full 50,000 ports that come predefined. Go ahead and uncheck the Random checkbox. Enter 10000 into the From box, and enter 10010 into the To box. If you expect to download more than 10 files at the same time, then you should make this range of ports larger.
On this page there is a UPNP Port Forwarding drop down box. Open it up and set that box to disabled. We are not going to use UPNP to forward our ports. Now go find your router on our routers page, and forward the port range you set above.
To setup port forwarding on this router your computer needs to have a static ip address.
Try our free PF Setup Static IP Address Program which will setup a static ip address for you.
Or you can take alook at our Static IP Address guide to setup a static ip address.
When you are finished setting up a static ip address, please come back to this page and enter
the ip address you setup in the Static IP Address box below.
Do not skip this step!
Open a web browser like Internet Explorer or Firefox. Enter the internal IP address of your router in the address bar of your browser.
If you do not know your routers internal IP address please read our How To Find Your Routers IP Address guide.
In the picture above the address bar has http://www.google.com in it. Just replace all of that with the internal IP address of your router.
By default the IP address should be set to 192.168.1.1.
You should see a box prompting you for your username and password. Enter your username and password now.
By default both the username and password are addon. Click the Ok button to log in to your router.
Please visit our Default Router Passwords page if the username and password shown above do not work for you.
Click the Services button near the top of the page.
Select NAT Rule Entry from the NAT Options drop down box.
Click the Add button near the bottom of the page.
We will list a series of lines here that will show you exactly how to forward the ports you need to forward. BitTornado requires you to forward the 10000-10010 ports. Go ahead and enter the settings shown above into the NAT Rule - Add menu and then click Submit.
