Port Forwarding, not forwarding

I forwarded a port for Utorrent and it still says that port is not open/forwarded...What can the problem be?

Any other ports forwarded successfully? And by what? Router (model number if it is)?

More info required before a sensible reply can be posted, my Macedonian friend.

Cheers
Mick

Did you turn windows firewall off again, or is it still on? That will stop port forwarding from having an effect.

Cheers

Check your LAN IP and make sure it's what you are forwarding to. Maybe it changed in the reinstall...

Any other port forwards currently working?

Any other firewall apps running or had been installed previously (like Zone Alarm )?

Cheers
Mick

Ohm, and a silly question: are you forwarding the correct port?? Does Utorrent have the ability to set the port other than a default, and did you change it??

Cheers
Mick

I bet it has something to do with the IP address.
