Topic: port forwarding idiot ;]

Hi Men,

Great site thanks!
I am getting speeds of around 13kb/s (good torrent seed ratios -timed overnight) I have a 3MB line this is normal right?
would it be an advantage to forward the ports?
what about privacy- cant see anything on the site about this very important Ques.
Please please please if your going to give instructions on anything- do it like your explaining it to a 5 year old!
Many sites loose out because people get fed up being treated as if they'r IT experts! simple complete idiot instructions please!

Murt

Dear TorrentExeFan,
Thank you for your feedback! Downloading speed of files thru BitTorrent protocol may depend on many circumstances. Correct port forwarding provides beneficent conditions for good downloading/uploading of files. You can check your port forwarding by launching your Torrent2Exe client and visiting our port checker at:
http://www.torrent2exe.com/test_port.php?port=X, where X is port number you want to check.

Also, you can take a look at the port forwarding guide at http://www.portforward.com/help/pfprogression.htm.
