First of all, I have VISITED portforwarding.com, and I've gone through the instructions it had led me through. The PROBLEM is, if I read it right, I have to do the same thing on all the computers connected to the network for it to have any effect. This isn't a possibility, as there are 4 other computers on the network, and none of them are mine, and I wouldn't be able to persuade their owners to do it.

I'd like my torrents to download a bit faster than 10 Kbps. Or at all. That would be nice too. Is there anything at all I can do?Are you planning to host torrents? Is that why you need port forwarding?

Port forwarding is enabled at the router end, not the computer end. Do you have access to the router? Do you know how to configure it? Does your PC have a static IP address within your LAN?Doesn't port forwarding have something to do with your download speeds as well? I don't know a whole lot about... things.

I do have access to the router, I don't really know how to configure it, and I have no idea if my PC has a static IP within my LAN.

:/dont forward your ports for a bittorrent client of any other P2P file sharing program. you really dont need to, and the less ports open on your router, the more secure your comp is.

im guessing your 10kbs is due to the lack of SEEDERS, my AVERAGE is ~20kbs, but on some occasions its anywhere from 50-100kbs.Oh well, nevermind.

It's probably just my terrible internet anyway. I hate DSL. And I especially hate DSL that doesn't work.tell me about it. i dont think i can count all the times ive been disconnected from BF2.
