hello everyone, i just got a Linksys Wireless-G Broadband router. after assembeling it, everything was fine, i surfed the net, connected my psp and my wii to the internet, but when i started Azureus it said that there were two problems

UPnP: Mapping 'UDP tracker client port (UDP/1)' Failed
UPnP: Mapping 'Incoming Peer Data Port (TCP/1)' Failed

So i ignored the problems and started a torrent, and it was much slower than usual, even though the torrent's health was good, and it showed at the bottom of the screen a yellow circle and said DHT Firewalled, another problem was with the P2P program, i started limewire and it said that the connecting quality was zero and it can't search nor download anything... same thing with e-mule and edonkey

i think the problem is with the linksys settings menu, but i'm not sure

I seriously need help with this one...

you need to find which ports the two progs are using first.
then you need to open them ports on your wireless router.
look in the manual to find the routers home page,
my belkin is 192.168.2.1.
i think it should be on the page of "virtual servers"
or something like.

post back how you got on,or if you need more help

try here (http://www.emule-project.net/home/perl/help.cgi?l=1&rm=show_topic&topic_id=129) for help with emule and your router.
i should imagine it will be much the same way to set up the torrent as well.
