dunno about you, but i use an experimental client. i think its called BitTornado. the ports that it uses are 6881 through 6889. i dont know if its the same for other clients. i'm not such a big computer person. anyways, shut down your firewall or forward ports in it. and if you have a router, check if it came with a firewall. my did, and it gave me hell trying to figure where those firewalls were coming from. also, if you're asked for the trigger start port and trigger end port, they're all 6969....i think....just try it. hope this helps...i think.....

oh, and one more thing. bittorrent always uses TCP ports. i think everyone knows that, though
