Static IP & Port Forwarding

jamjar · 15 Feb 2017 at 20:26

Hi I,m having trouble with my utorrent and have read that a static ip & Port Forwarding is something to look into , but i have read that a static ip isn,t as secure online as a Dynamic ip i just wanted some feedback regarding this problem thanks

so does this mean i will still run a dynamic ip ?

Okay so where do i find this setting ? upnp I have the Asus DSL RC68U and i,m on B.T Infinity which i know throttles the p2p in the evenings and weekends

well this seems odd because i was downloading at 7mb dinner time and now i,m down to 200kbs

well i think i stand corrected ! B.T doesn,t throttle p2p any more , because i,m back to 6mb now ! I have a feeling the trouble was the torrents i was choosing to download were all bad !!

they wern,t seeding enough people hence i wasn,t downloading anything , so i,m learning ha! i,m also using Qbittorrent which i,m finding amazing ,and no rubbish adware with it like utorrent which i used for years and feel kind of sad how its gone
