Question : Problem: Bittorrent and Airport?

Hi All,

I am running a Windows/Mac home network, mostly Mac.  I am trying to work with BitTorrent for file transfer, but I seem to be stuck behind a firewall somewhere.  I have been here:

http://www.portforward.com/english/routers/port_forwarding/Apple/AirPortExtreame/BitTorrent.htm

..and followed the instructions, and I still can't get the transfer rate above 3k/sec.  

The BitTorrent status line reads "Online, maybe firewalled."  I'm not running any firewall anything.

Any suggestions?

Answer : Problem: Bittorrent and Airport?

Bittorrent is likely to think your Airport qualifies as a firewall... what Bittorren considers a Firewall is anything between you and your Internet connection.  Sometimes I get the same reading at home when connected to an Airport but if I connect directly my router is goes away.  

Anytime you do ANY kind of Port Forwarding/NATing or anything that requires traffic to not go directly to your computer Bittorrent is likely to think you are firewalled, it's a generic designation, not a really specific technical one.
