All the sudden while i was trying to use utorrent the download failed and said " system cannot find the specified path, and a firewall /router is limiting your network traffic, open up a port so others can connect to you.. I got the current port # for utorrent, and i am connected hardwire to my linksys router in the setting menu, under the gaming tab , looking at single port forwarding, what do i do now?

 
Type in the ip address of the machine utorrent is on. Name the program utor. Authroize both UTP and UDP. And you port range is the port your using; just make it the beginning and end.

ok well im in the linksys page , single port forwarding.. typed in the port # for utorrent ( 34898 )

Name :utor

external port: 34898

internal port 34898

protocol: set to both ( TCP/ UDP )

But heres where im stuck.. what to i put in for the "To IP address " The only thing i can change is the last numbers .. 192.168.2. Is already set, but no ending #

 
XP:

Start > Run ... > type cmd > ipconfig /all

Vista:

Start > type cmd in search box > ipconfig /all

You may have to Run as Administrator if, for whatever reason, you haven't disabled UAC.

To disable UAC:

Start > Type System Configuration in search box > Tools > Disable UAC > Launch

To disable the Security Center pop-up balloon telling you UAC is disabled:

Start > Type regedit in search box > HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE > Software > Microsoft > Security Center > Edit > New DWORD Value (32-bit) > name the new item UACDisableNotify > Change the value to 1

Restart your computer, enjoy less frustration.
