Have a read through the Settings Guide linked to in my sig

When it comes to forwarding Bitcomets port, here are the directions for your router

http://www.portforward.com/english/routers...v6/BitComet.htm

when it comes to the static ip part there is actually an option in your router to set a reserved IP for your computer so you can either set up your computer's static ip in windows or on your router.

ive set up my comp to a static ip and configured the port but still, wen i use canyouseeme it doesnt register and i have bad download speeds

[bitdave]

Dont worry about canyouseeme

just start a popular torrent and after about 3 minutes see if you have any Remote peers

If they are still all Local or NAT traversal then maybe you didnt do the portforwarding rule correct

or maybe you have some antivirus / firewall software that is blocking incoming connections.

[jeremylee92]

yeh ive only got local and nat traversal i have the windows firewall and macafee security centre. it says that bitcomet has full access though.

[kluelos]

If your listen port is blocked by any firewall, no remote peer can intiate contact with your client. You'll need to figure out what's doing the blocking and deal with it.
